Hi and thanks for the replies.

Yes, I guess what I meant was that regardless if you exceed the specified limits or not, if the restrictions applied.... so it looks like the restrictions will only be applied on those days that you exceed the stated amounts.

I'll download that latest info sheet about the limits... thank you.

The Cable and Wireless socket (I live in the North West of England by the way) is right next to my existing BT telephone socket and looks very similar and has what appears to be a standard telephone type socket on the front.

The box ( and connections ) goes through the wall to a box mounted on the outside wall and the cable then runs under the grass in the front garden to what looks like a triangular pavement access point, just beyond my gardens front fence.

While placing my order this morning with VM, the sales adviser said they could 'see' a connection to the premises, so it would seem that the connection is still 'live' at the socket?

Thanks again for the quick responses... much appreciated.
