All VM reps on here,
If VM are doing this why don't they charge accordingly..IE 4 while 9 you get billed 70% cheaper than at the other times?
If you did this 90% of the moaning would go away and you would be accurately delivering the service you are advertising.
Coming back to why they are doing this, I think you need to look at those over subscribed areas...such as Manchester etc. Could it be they are rotating bandwidth caps day on day or week on week regardless of bandwidth used to ease strain on the network?

Your post is a tad confusing.
In two sentences you claim they (VM) are intentionally doing this I've marked those in red, and then then you claim "if" VM are doing this, marked in blue.
Perhaps it may help your post of you could provide evidence to support the red highlights, other than a few posters having problems with downloads, and given VM's apparent transparency on when and why they reduce speeds?
In fact, you may have answered your own point in the possibility of the subscribers being in busy traffic areas, rather than deliberate capping of speeds outside of an STM window.
