 | Previously satisfied Cogeco customer I have had Cogeco internet for about a decade by now, and this is the first time I can say I am truly unhappy enough to look into other providers. I am on the pro package, but routinely downloaded greater than 100 gigabytes per month.
Even when they started traffic shaping to stop p2p I was okay with it because I felt the trade-off between very forgiving soft caps and not being able to use certain protocols was acceptable.
Now that they have started enforcing a hard bitcap their service cannot provide what I need. They don't even offer a service that suits my needs, unless I want to pay huge sums of money for a business connection which comes with all sorts of frills I do not need nor want.
I am now forced to switch to a slower but unlimited DSL, which will take some getting used to but at least I won't have to be paranoid about actually using my connection for whatever I want. |
