| "somebody who reads email once a week" If you have someone that reads email only once a week i.e. grandma, give them dial up. No use to have broadband if you arent going to use it that much.
Next excuse in line please  |
|
| Re: "somebody who reads email once a week" True, 100kbps should come free with TV for grandma (they can still rip her off by renting the modem). |
|
| Yes, that phantom $5 for 100 kbps grandma tier that never materializes.... |

Our most popular start-up tier is $15 per month for 512 Kbps speed capped at 10GB per month,and most people usually upgrade to the $20 1,024 speed after couple of months (but still 10GB cap).] |

When are they going to get rid of unlimited customer support? Obviously this is a cost that is unsustainable  |

Why does everyone always invoke grandma when they talk about low usage people? My grandma uses several GB a month, probably at least 100. Granted she spends a lot of time online since we got her that laptop. |

| This is very true. I have a friend who is 83 years old and uses around 300GB a month. He discovered the joys of Netflix and Roku. I set him up with a DD-WRT router and couldn't get over how much bandwidth he uses.
By contrast I'm in my late 20s with a tech background and rarely use more than 100GB. I watch some Netflix but TV/movies aren't really my thing and the bulk of my online activity is web browsing and gaming. |
