| Bill by Byte Bill by byte could work....
Here is how....instead of offering 768/128 DSL for $14.95 a month unlimited. You offer 2.0Mbps/768 with a 30GB cap for $14.95 a month.
Instead of 1.5/768 for 29.99 unlimited, you offer 3.0/768 with a 200GB cap
And so on..... If the allowance is under your useage then the speed becomes the incentive.
I would love to have 300GB of 3.0/768 for 49.99 a month
When you go over your allocation give the customer the choice of auto purchasing more or throttling to 128/128 for the remainder of the billing period.
Problem solved. |

2 edits | Part of the reason I am so passionate about this is the fact that broadband in the US sucks.
I do not think that broadband should be offered in speeds under 2.0Mbps
The US internet as a whole averages 2.0Mbps.
Why not make the average the standard?
As an Example....
Sell it in chunks all at "best effort" speed 6.0Mbps/768
20GB per month $14.95
100GB per month $29.99
200GB per month $39.99
500GB per month $69.99
Unlimited $99.99
Metering is counted again downloading/ NOT Uploading
Mail is not counted.
If your infected with Spyware and Bots its going to eat your bill and force dumb users to be responsible.
Also someone above gave a trickle example. IF that persons ISP was billing by the byte they would have to pay extra to be able to afford to harass you. |
