Did all plusnet subscribers get this email about the changes to come, or is
it just those who are deemed to be heavy users. So far for Febuary i have
downloaded about 1.5 gb of data, trial of Win XP64 and addons/mods for op
flashpoint. I am on a 512k line, all i can get as a result of distance from
exchange. I am pay for the "unlimited" service £21.99 a month, signed up
last oct/nov.

Hi,


Yes, we sent the mail about fair usage to all of our residential broadband
customers.

Everybody got it.

this should have made it obvious it wasn't only being sent to heavy
users, as yours is low.

It wasn't advertised as unlimited then, nor at any time since. (I
signed up in September, and have never seen it advertised as
unlimited).

But if you are downloading as little as you think, you would be better
off on a lower level account anyhow.

I have got one for one of my PlusNet lines, but not for the other one
yet. I'm guessing it just takes a while for their mailing list
software a while to chew through the entire customer list...
