Are BT actually enforcing their 1GB a day capping on their 1MB service yet?

There is no 1GB a day limit, but there will be a 30GB monthly limit.

Does anybody know if they plan to enable a check of usage on their website
as the 1GB p.m. customers are able to.

Cheers, A.

Correct. I just prefer to call it that. 1GB a day is nothing when you
look at it like that, not for me anyway!

Have BT said when they'll start enforcing it?

I didn't just post that to be pedantic. After seeing your post I had to
check because it had me worried. I won't do anything like 30GB in a month
but I definitely need to go over 1GB a day for a couple of times during the
month. If they decide to cap it on a daily basis, then I'm outa there.

Some time after Jan 05 I believe.

I realsied that, you're right though, they are too completely
different things. 1GB a day is ridiculous anyway for a serious
internet user.

Right thanks. Of course 30GB is the upstream and downstream usually,
so it's not very much IMO
