Another view from OZ.
I've got a plan that is labeled as Unlimited (12G) Cable.
12G/M (12:00:00-23:59:59)
24G/M (00:00:00-12:59:59) (Disappears if the base 12G is used up)
Once the 12G is used up it drops to 64k.
Every 4th month is free as I also have a telephone with this
provider.
The cost actually dropped this month which is a free month.
Previously the alotted transfer has gone up twice (from
memory) with no fee increase. When I got the initial plan
there wasn't a differentiation between AM and PM and the
the allowance was for the whole 24 hour period.
There are plans above and below this one. I can move up
at any time in the month and have it take effect straight
away (untested) and move down at the end of the current
billing cycle.
If I have the choice on when to do a high volume operation
I do it in the AM (24G period).
My father has a 200MB plan which gives him 600MB. His use
is basically email only and software updates. The later
is what can cause him problems if he doesn't manage his
usage correctly.
I've a friend that works for the provider in question and
he is on their highest plan. He has 4 children and a wife
who are all active users and does max out his plan on
occasions.
The big advanatge of these plans is that the cost is fixed
even if I've used up all my alotted transfer.
