I am into IT as you said but I am not wrong about the newbie argument, most people I speak to havent got a clue that ntl even have a cap and they certianly wouldnt know what I was on about if I said what would you do if you had a 5 gig cap. There are also other things such as people downloading at work because their work has a nice connection and then not downloading at home, but not everyone is lucky enough to be in that position. I would like someone to show me a website that needs a 3mbit connection and is quite slow on a 750kbit connection. Prove me wrong please.

How about not one website, but opening 7 at once? I use firefox and use group tab bookmarks, some total 7 websites, Im pretty sure a 3Mb connection would totally outstrip a 750k one at opening them.
However, you are quite right about most people not knowing about NTL's "cap", mainly because they didnt check the agreement they signed. (either by registering online or physically signing up). That is not NTL's fault and it is mentioned somewhere in ntlworld.com, I think :P
