I'm sitting here and seriously starting to wonder why and what I pay for exactly.

My local UBR has finally been upgraded to allow for higher uploads, currently im on 20mbit so its 2mbit very nice great, im sure that's useful for file sharing.,. or video conferencing.. whatever

But now i find my Download capped at 5/6mbit between 5pm and Midnight and ALL WEEKENDS...

Im out of the house at 8am, I don't get home till gone 6pm so what is the point here ?

Anyone else in the same boat as me and feel a bit ripped off ? If the traffic policy would cap people individually then i might think it was fair but at the moment i seem to be blanket penalised all the time to allow for heavy users and an increase in upstream at the expense of down.....
