Re: Speakeasy "we don't cap" bandwidth cap. Are they serious?
Yeah, that's pretty ambiguous. You would think with the economy the way it is and with home users flocking to cheaper cable/fiber services, Speakeasy would want to keep every customer they can. Certainly threatening users and imposing these "caps" without any warning isn't going to do it. If I hear a word about my usage, I will definitely jump ship immediately. Right now I pay $180/month for 15/1 ADSL2. Comcast offers 50/10 for $130 or 30/5 for $70. The only reason I'm with speakeasy is for the reliability & so that I didn't have to get yelled at about my bandwidth usage. If they really are imposing a 100gb/month cap, there's no reason for me to stick with them.
A fraction of the speed and less than 1/2 the bandwidth for more than double the price? I think not. |
