Re: DSL has no caps!

Apparently neither does my time warner... I called asking about speed options for upgrading, and i asked what my cap would be for the various plans. She said to me "The only caps there are is how fast you can download, there are no other caps." I asked just to make sure, "There is no maximum amount of data transfer in 1 month?" She replied with a "NO" almost sounding upset that i kept asking. So, those with time warner rr there are no caps.
This was my original reason for stating DSL not having caps. This "gripe" applies to a very small percentage of people. I actually agree with other posters (although disagree with how they presented themselves) that this should not have ranked in the top 8.

Re: DSL has no caps!

Some DSL companies have caps, although not any of the major ones... that I know of.

MOST Cable companies have caps, and only 1 [or maybe a bit more] major one doesn't.

COX [mine] has caps and tells you what they are.
Charter has caps as well, not sure if they tell you.
Comcast has invisible caps unless they recently changed their policy and I missed it.

Those are all major ISPs and all of the customers they serve are not a small percentage of people.

If your ISP doesn't have caps, be happy, but the fact remains that many do.

Re: DSL has no caps!

Since when did Charter start capping? I haven't read any anyone complaining about it.
