Beat me by a minute Simon.

I beat Simon by a minute! He should never have told me about it, just got to share a good thing.

Excellent!

Thanks Simon

Does it cost anything to upgrade to this?

Some days you're the pigeon, some days you're the statue. Live with it.

So if I'm reading right, you get 15GB to use between 8AM and 1AM, and a further 45GB to use between 1AM and 8AM?

I attempted to sign up for Max Premium during the early hours of the morning, but the form got corrupted and IDNet attempted to call me today...might go for this instead, though if it is only 15GB during 17 hours of each day, then I might not manage it. My usage for the month upload exclusive is 32GB, but it can go up or down by a few...

That's how I understand it, yup. Simon explained it a bit further here

In that case I think you might be better on the straightforward 30Gb package and just paying the extra

Well i'm on Max Extreme now, as I do like the additional upload (running game servers sometimes, seeding on BT), and the exchange prioritisation helps too!

I'm pretty sure my usage can vary quite a bit, though I've never paid attention to it until the beginning of last month, but I can imagine my usage varies between 30 and 70GB in a month, depends what comes out, and what the family are doing on the network etc. 70GB on IDNet could would out expensive...

EDIT: ISP keeps a record!

Oct 06: 33.9 / 5.88 GB
Sep 06: 31.18 / 4.9GB
Aug 06: 16.31 / 10.83 GB
Jul 06: 55 / 14.51 GB
Jun 06: 27.9 / 6.53 GB
May 06: 47.27 / 5.06 GB

Now you all know! I do feel that I'll download more when I'm at work less, like after xmas, but I dunno...

Sounds like, with those sorts of usage figures, you'd be better off with one of the Entanet resellers.

For my own part, I'll be back with IDNet tomorrow morning (all being well) on this brand new service. It just remains to be seen if I can stay within the limits.
