Well I knew it had to happen someday

Today I got "the call",I am one of the top 200 absusers (country?) and my account will be terminated for a year if I don't cut back.It was also suggested to me that I sign up for the commercial package

I got "the one percenter call" last Friday -- I felt deep, deep sorrow, regret and shame for my behavior. I was sure that all of my dear departed ancestors were surely most disappointed in me seeing (from beyond) the way I have behaved. Now that I see there is a top 200 letter most of my shame has been lifted!

But seriously, I am glad that you have options, I wish that my location did as well. When a viable option becomes available, I'm going to jump on it.

Do you have a number for us?

So far it is 3 people at 200+. I am very surprised that top 200 is at only ~250.

The person that I spoke with did not give me a number other than the top 1%. He would not elaborate when I asked him if he was talking Nationwide or just MN, or anything else for that matter. He wasn't very pleasant but who can blame him having been assigned to make those calls. In hindsight, I wished I'd responded with "have I won a prize?" when he said the top 1%, perhaps that would've given him a small grin.

I'm above 200+ gigs a month,but then again I've been at the number for years and now this is the first time I've ever gotten a warning for that.

Me being in the top 200 has to be at the stateside/citywide level becaue there's no way of all the customers they have only 200 are averaging above 7 gigs a day
