The amout of time son and son in law play COD fibre must be good

i contacted them again today ian livningstion team and i got this back

Hi John,

That was the information I was given by the BT Infinity team, which I thought was correct,
so I'm as confused as you.
Let me try and find a manager to get a definitive answer.

.
so i will wait and see if get reply back from them

may because you have not reached the 300 gigs usage yet and no speed cut of as yet

Which is kind of a moot point when no other ISP allows you to get close to that figure unless you a) pay a lot more or b) only use it at night.

I've noticed in a few threads you've been pimping this speed reduction as some sort of crime on behalf of BT but in other threads you seem to think ISPs offering dismal peak time allowances for a far higher price is "better"

To be honest, if you think 45GB for 12 hours a day is acceptable, I dunno why you'd have any issue with BT's offering which is essentially "average 10GB a day at whatever time you wish".

Perhaps you only use your internet connection to download copious amounts of "stuff" overnight for consumption at a later date but then the question is - do you use more than 300GB a month?

So who you going for?

Orl I respect that you're a very keen advocate of BT Infinity in it's purest form (from BT), however I think most agree that the manner in which you put your points across is sometimes just plain rude.

BT isn't the be-all and end-all of FTTC broadband, there are other providers out there so that the consumer has choice, whether it be on bandwidth shaping, throttling, download caps, upload speeds, etc.

BT does NOT offer the best of everything, sure, they have the most "unlimited" package (which isn't surprising as they rolled out the service). But they have severe traffic-shaping for P2P and other protocols, just ask the guys who played the RIFT beta.

A 45GB monthly cap during the hours that most people are at work is a moot point for some people, myself included; I leave the house by 8am and don't get back till 7:30pm, so whatever I download in that 30 mins counts towards my 45GB. Not exactly a big deal, plus I get no traffic shaping, better customer support and a 12 month contract instead of an 18 month. Is that better than BT Infinity? For me, yes.
