Re: Virgin Media will double the number of hours it throttles the bandwidth
how can you get the same thing or 25 pounds?
and regardless of the cost how will people put up with this i mean look at the
trouble it caused over the 4pm - 9pm time frame now they've done it even worse.
no-one see's to see the whole problem look at it this way
you hit your 6GB limit say within the 10AM time frame thats 5 hrs throttled.
which then takes you to 3pm, then your un-throttled back to full speed upto 4pm
from 4pm - 9pm if you hit your 3gb limit within the 4PM mark that takes you to 9pm,
now don't forget you can trigger the STM within 1 min within 10am - 3pm /4pm - 9pm
so say you hit your trigger at 2:59pm, thats 8pm the first throttle will come off.
but you've already passed over into the 4pm -9pm throttle so that 8pm it removes.
who's saying its not going to get mixed with the later STM so add 5 hours onto
9pm 1am - 10am your basically ever going to get 20mb.
probably got my maths all screwed up but you get the idea
what I'm trying to get at is, your allocated 3gb in peak time of full speed no STM right.
if you hit the STM at 2:59PM thats 5 hours STM'd right there basically NULLING out the
legitimate time you supposed to get 3GB allowance and no STM so you've basically got STM'd
all the way from Morning, Though till Noon, then Automatically hit Evening STM'
You can only use the connection un-throttled from 1am - 10am for now.
Pretty sneaky way of making sure within the 4pm - 9pm your STM'd regardless of even touching the 3GB threshold
