No they are not, they are saying that the 1Mb/64k/5GB contract is not for you and you should be on the 2Mb/128k/30GB contract. on that even downloading the 530Mb game demo only takes you to half your (averaged) daily usage. The new 30Gb a month works better with your usage patterns, so if you spend a day downloading games and maps and download 3Gb then the next couple surfing, then a weekend playing, on the current process you broke guidance once, on the new one it all averages.

The problem that this site is already showing is people will see a 1Mb contract for not too much £ and jump on it when realistically the bronze tier is no more suitable for them now than it was when it was a 300k contract.
