[Cable] ZtCSo zap the cap for unlimited downloads.....
On 100/10 i'd get 21/10 right from 8pm to midnight?
Do we have to enable it each and every month or can I activate it once and in 10 months time disable it? Or go before 8pm on the first of every month to the website and enable ztc? |

I believe once you activate it is defaults to being on for the following month, however you could turn it off at anytime prior to the first of the next month and be subject to your usual data caps.
If i am wrong someone please correct me. |

If it's not on before 8pm on the first then I believe it queues it for the next month. |

I can confirm that it will stay enabled from month to month until you explicitly turn it off. |

Wouldn't it be 15/10? » help.teksavvy.com/hc/en- ··· -the-CapSays anything over 45 is 15. |

Between the hours of 8pm and 12am your download speed will be reduced as follows:
Package Internet Speed / Zap The Cap Speed
Up to and including 7 Mbps / 3 mbps Up to and including 15 Mbps / 6 mbps Up to and including 25 Mbps / 9 mbps Up to and including 45 Mbps / 12 mbps Up to and including 99 Mbps / 15 mbps 100 Mbps+ / 21 mbps
Outside of the 8pm to 12am Zap the Cap window, you will receive your full download speed. |

yeah looks like we need to update that faq. |
|
|
Working on getting it updated right now. |
|
|
The FAQ hasn't been changed yet.
Marc seemed to think it was out-of-date. What are the new numbers? As a ZtC advocate, I'd really like to know. |

my experience with ZtC is that it sometimes got "stuck" during the day... ( i have 25/10/400GB) and noticed several times that my Download speed during the day was stuck at 9 Mbps... which went back to the normal VDSL speed of 25 after i rebooted the modem...(smartRG) (BTW it is moot point because i only used 65-80 MB during the months that it was on)
SO.... i just turned it off, and will just go unlimited...
in ZtC's defense, i was able to watch 2 NETFLIX 1080p steams at once in the 8-12pm (ZtC) zone...
Edit... sorry...Darn!... I meant Download speed, not upload speed... |

ZtCIt has been updated already. Previously it listed all speeds above 45mb would go down to 15Mb. |

Re: [Cable] ZtCHello redeye, Of course unlimited is always an option, but if you'd prefer ZtC and it isn't functioning properly feel free to post in the » /forum ··· avdirect forum and we'll work on getting that fixed up for you Shawn S |

"Overage on all packages that are not unlimited* will be charged at $0.50/GB to a maximum of $50/month.
*Plans that have a download speed of 50Mbps or more are not subject to the $50/month overage cap."
Perhaps this should be updated on the 100mbit package? They kinda contradict each other... it's under overage charges. |

Hey aereolis, What you are quoting here means that if you are not on an unlimited package and that package is under 50Mbps, there's a limit of $50/month at $0.50/GB If you are on a package that is not unlimited and is 50Mbps and over, there is no cap of $50/month (still 0.50/GB/month). This also applies for the 100 package. Although when ZtC is enabled, your package technically becomes an unlimited package so you don't need to worry about overages at that point. We could update the wording as it is a bit confusing, we do have a section on our knowledge base that explains it a bit better: » help.teksavvy.com/hc/en- ··· -ChargesThank you, Jonathan |

Right Jonathan but I believe we are changing that to also have the cap. Should be updated soon I believe. Check with Andre plz. |
|

Sounds good. |

Yeah I understood it all and how it works, just saying wording was a bit confusing. You guys should also include in a more prominent place (with the plans?) on your website notes about how ztc is an optional feature on all 400gb plans as well how uploads don't count towards your cap & are unlimited. They are selling features to teksavvy, and some people struggle to compare packages with rogers getting crazy with their current 100/250 offerings. The website is a sales tool and you *should* want that to be reflected. |

said by aereolis: You guys should also include in a more prominent place (with the plans?) on your website notes about how ztc is an optional feature on all 400gb plans as well how uploads don't count towards your cap & are unlimited. Yep, have to agree on both points. A potential new customer browsing the website plans would not see anything about ZtC. The Uploads-Not-Counting feature NOT being on the website has been puzzling to me. I, and others, have mentioned it more than once to TSI personnel over the last few years. It's almost seems like they don't really want to post it on the website as 'official policy', for some reason. Better to just leave it as a 'casual mention' in some forum post!?!? edit2: Off-topic DSL Promo info removed |
