Re: Anything on new Residential or Business plans? I just signed up and had the Business SoHo package (50x2) installed. There is currently no bandwidth throttling or monthly data caps in the Business packages. The salesman I was in contact with said that data caps arent being implemented for Business packages. The "My Bandwidth" page on the mycableone website is completely blank |

That's bizarre. Here's what I pulled up on the business page:
quote:
Download speeds up to 50 Mbps
Upload speeds up to 2 Mbps
100 GB Data Usage Monthly
Optional Static IP (additional cost)
20 Cable One Email Accounts
7+ GB of storage/email acct
No Throttling
They still advertise a 100 GB cap. If this package is actually unlimited and this is somehow a marketing error, I'll sign up sooner than I thought for it.

I Think your salesman lied about no caps..
They may not be actively enforceing them, but there pretty damn clearly listed.
If I am in fact wrong & there really are no caps then I probably still not sign up unless its going to actually work in the evenings unlike my current 10mb grandfathered plan. |

I think it's a possibility. Remember when the 10 meg was still available to new customers, yet it was still subject to throttling conditions if you downloaded more than 5 GB during the day? I've exceeded that limit more times than I could ever count, yet I haven't been throttled for at least 2 years now.

@Pashune:
I have an email from my sales manager that states that they have to put the "possible" caps on the website, however, when I log into the "MyAccount" page and check my bandwidth, the gauge that would normally be there for showing your data cap is missing. I highly doubt he would have lied, since Ive dealt with him in the past and have always got that "good guy" vibe from him.
The contract would also have the caps in the fine print, and theres nothing about daily/monthly data caps. I use about 5-7Gb a day and no complaints, no slowdowns (50+mbit down all day at all times). |

That's just awesome. I currently have no issues with my 10 meg tier though I'd like to someday upgrade.
So I'm assuming the price increases just account for higher upload speeds, email accounts, and web page space/bandwidth?
50x2 business tier is $70 per month I assume? What about installation fees? I'm curious.

I'm just wondering, are they still ignoring caps on business accounts? I had no data on my account then about 2 months ago it started to fill in. I have the 300g capped business plan. If they are still not billing, I'm wondering how much is safe and what would be considered too much to ignore? |

Sioux City, IA | Can't really comment as we've not gone past the magic cap number in the last couple of months. It would be best to confirm w/ CableOne. Reach out to your local Internet Engineer/Manager. Just request him/her/them when you call. If you're interested in a Biz. plan, they'll be happy to speak w/ you.
I will say that at the moment, we're not getting advertised (business) speeds during peek hours. I've just haven't gotten around to calling in quite yet.

Doesn't sound good. They've got low caps and they're already having capacity problems.
I still refuse to budge off of my 10 meg tier for now.
