OT - That really hits the mark. It goes to show that we were all lied to when we were told that 'capping is necessary to prevent the minority of heavy users affecting everybody else's service'. This was just a cynical tactic used by ntl to put customer against customer. The truth of the matter is that there is no congestion for the most part. It's all about ntl trying to squeeze even more out of their cash-cow product. Luckily it's all just so much hot air at the moment and they are even apparently saying that there will be no usage monitoring at first.
