Re: Lucky you... said by LordFlux:I signed up with a local ISP who was reselling satellite service (not sure if it was HughesNet, but I'm thinking it was WildBlue). The lowest level of service with Wildblue allows 7,500MB of bandwidth on the download side and 2,300MB on the upload side. If someone told you that the limit was 250MB then either they are stupid or just didn't know. If you were getting 1MB speed, then you were on the middle package which has a 12,000MB/3,000MB download/upload limit. The top tier has a 17,000MB/5000MB download/upload limit.
As for not being told that there is a limit, did you not read the contract before you signed it? Wildblue also has the FAP policy posted on their site. Here's the link:

1 edit | This was almost 5 years ago when I signed up for their service -- I'm sure the usage policy and account packages have changed since then. And I'm not completely sure it was WildBlue, because the local reseller was selling it as 'their' service... that is until I called them to complain, then they forwarded me to someone else.
As for signing a contract -- I did not sign one. I called up the local reseller, setup an appointment, they came out and installed it, and that was it. Was not told about any FAP agreement when I called to order, nor when they came to install. |
