More Capping


[link to this post] 		 
I was told by bt that they are now capping 24/7, i had to speak to the faults dept because of my slow 8 meg speeds, i was told, no fualts just capping. So now i cant even watch bbc news livein the morning now. What a joke.

Possibly went over your usage allowance or hit the FUP? I don't get capping 24/7.

I don't believe I have triggered any fup as my torrent speeds have always been terrible and that is mostly how I download.

Even downloading off peek I still get worse speeds compared to my old ukonline 2mb LLU connection. Damn you BT and your traffic management!!!
