Commercial accounts do not have caps, just not super fast speeds, unless they changed the TOS recently. I have already downloaded over 300gb/month and never got billed any overage fees.
I have a 4gb download/768k upload account which is $70/mo. Less than your super high speed capped account. What good is the speed if you are capped? |

When I checked, the commercial accounts were indeed capped at 75 GB's.
And you're right- what good is high speed when you're capped?
At least Comcast gives you a 250 GB cap. Anything less than that for a high speed account is ridiculous, what with Netflix, Hulu, and now YouTube joining in the online tv/movie streaming game.
It's a new age, and the cable companies want you to have to get your video only from them... and pay through the nose for it. |

| I DO have a commerical account with prolog.
Maybe I have just been lucky, If there is a 75 GB monthly cap I have been exceeding it about 30-50% of the time.
Possibly they average your usage over a period of months, or they just don't enforce it.
I just pulled out a copy of my contract and I see no language regarding caps. Can you supply a link to this information the ptd.net web site? |
