Home::1 1TB quota increase

I've just seen that, as of August 1st, the Home::1 1TB tariff is changing to 2TB

https://aastatus.net/2535

Happy to take the increase (though I'd actually have preferred a price cut instead) but it doesn't really affect me (yet) as I generally use less than 500GB anyway. Still, nice to know that there's plenty of headroom as usage patterns change

I wonder how many people really push the limit on the 1TB service now?

We have a whole mix of customers, many like you find 500GB to be plenty, others (especially with Kids and especially with Kids at home in the holidays) are reaching 1TB - the Quota bonus helps, but we still see an increasing number reach their quota.

I'll tell my two Netflix/Youtube guzzling teenagers to try harder

What will happen for existing 2TB customers?

Possibly a price cut. That’s what they did when they upped all 40/10s to 80/20. My bill went down by £10pm. I was rather pleased!

Am I right in thinking that upload isn't counted in the same way it isn't for the older packages?

Wow! A reduction of 1995GB per month?

[only jesting I know you meant 5TB]

If you're on 2TB at the moment then that sounds like our SoHo::1 tariff - if so this is being increased to 5TB/month.

This is correct. the monthly tariff relates to the download traffic (from us to you).
