[nmshadey]

Yup, 10Mbit here in South Wales :-) (cardiff)

Does anyone have any information regarding the 75GB download limit? Is this a guideline? If not what are the consequences of hitting the limit?

75GB is quite alot, but I just like to know all the facts :-)

Hi All

Same here in Sunderland. 10mg this morning.

To fast for my brain this time in the morning, but still S**T happens.

Looks like the automatic rollout has begun then.
