Re: Usage Billing
said by Snickerdo  :If the cap on Pro was 200 or 250GB I can guarantee that there would be no uproar at all, and that the people who are angry would be a mere fraction of the people who are pissed off as hell right now. Standard 150GB
Pro 250GB
Maybe .001% might complain.

It would make the pro plan actually worth it, right now it's useless.

The way I see it is, if Tek Savvy can afford to give their customers 200GB of peer1 bandwidth for $29.99 / month I can't see why Cogeco can't do the same on all their $44+ plans. Also considering that they're a MUCH larger company and serve significantly more customers, they would get an even better rate with peer1 over TSI, I would even accept 150GB on their standard plan. Pro REALLY needs to be no less than 200GB, for over $80 a month, no way it should be less than 200, 250 is still even depressing but I feel it would be giving the customers a lot more to look forward to over the current limit and overcharges.

@cgocable.net | I know you'd all like higher speed caps, but according to Cogeco bandwidth is an incredibly scarce and expensive natural resource.*
* Except in Portugal and other such places with competitors. |

hey guys..i just noticed BELLS 50 dollar a month DSL is 75 GB's for bandwidth limit per month.
so does that mean cogeos is gonna go up to that? that still sucks,,, even a 100 GB would sorta make me consider sticking around...
but once DSL is on my street TEK SAVVY it is.
i guess its a positive thing to see 75 at least.. u think cogeco would want to keep up with the competitor. ..useless cogeco! |

Re: Usage Billing
Why would you be OK with caps of any form? They don't exist in other nations with competitive broadband industries.
ISPs have never been forced to open up their books to demonstrate how much each user costs them. |

this whole delayed usage meter and stuff is probably cogeco trying to pull a fast one on its customers...haha why not? they already shown they could care less
i have a feeling something will sway our way sorta soon..maybe im just being too optimissitic. but i cant see how they can get away with such bad service.. |

Is anyone else having trouble logging in to their accounts? I'm putting in the same password as always (and, yes, I checked the caps lock) but now I get redirected to an incorrect login page. |

My apologies in advance, Asawulf, but I don't understand what you mean. I am having trouble not just getting to the bandwidth page, but into "My Account". Does the outage include that login? |
