In October last year I received an email stating that a large amount of data was being transferred over my connection and that it was having a detrimental effect to users in my area. To be fair I was guilty of heavy use so like a good boy I set up my download software to throttle back from 50Mb to 15Mb if I was downloading between 9am and 9pm.

Today I got another email saying that my broadband activity is still having a detrimental effect to users in my area!

Can VM really claim I’m in breach of the AUP when I’m only downloading at 15Mb?
