Re: Does not compute....

If you receive a warning and continue to exceed the cap, then no, you should not complain. If the cap is invisible and your service is disconnected without notification or reason, then yes, I see justification to complain.

Actually, it's just shy of 1 TB (duplex )

Actually, saturating a T-1 24/7 for an entire month would only net you about 475GB, not really in the realm of the mega Comcast hogs, but definitely up there.

People who get cut off for 100gb of downloads really should complain. If you maxed out a T1 for a whole month that's about a terabyte.

My Treo stays connected to EVDO 24/7. It's not staying connected that's limited, it's a 5GB cap that's limited. Though, really, the connection is so slow and horrible, I can't imagine really using it for anything other than browsing and e-mail. Even that's pushing it. SSH works fine, but that's against the EULA.

Some assembly required, your mileage may vary, no pixels were harmed in the writing of this post. Brain cells, though, are a different matter. You want fries with that?

This does not make much sense to me.....

We aren't talking about a 10/1 cable ISP who will cap you/cut you off after 100GB - because it can interfere with other customers.

We are talking...what.... less than 1/1?

Unless verizon is paying someone else for the cost of their data....i don't get how someone even using it 24/7 can hurt anyone?
