My data transfer totals over the past 3 months seem ridicuously low compared to some of the useage figures quoted in this thread! I am however only on 1MB speed, which is the 3GB per month cap. Since I started monitoring my useage using netmeter back in July my useage (downloads and uploads) has always exceeded the 3GB monthly limit:

AUG: 3.7GB
SEP: 3.4GB
so far this month I've used 1.1GB, which puts me on course for about 3GB.

Does anyone know if I'm likely to get a letter? I was under the impression that anyone exceeding the limit by even the smallest amount would be written to, but I've received nothing so far and other people I know who are also on 3GB limits have received nothing either, even though at least 2 of them regularly well exceed 3GB (one, I imagine, by a considerable amount).

Should I try to cut back my useage even more or am I OK?
