Greeetings,

Its been 2 years since I have seen this, but needless to say If you are a high downloader, you will be getting a call or letter soon.

I got a call from some not so intelligent Comcast employee today. Regarding network abuse. Now I have the Pro Account $95/mo for 6MB/768K I believe the speeds are. Anyways, I dealt with this little issue about 2 years ago. I had gotten a call from the same $5.75/hr person. Saying the samething, too much usage, can't tell ya how much nor can I tell what is a reasonable limit.

Now 2 years ago when I called my local office (best advice, i will be doing this Monday) Locals advised me that I needed the Pro Account, so I signed up for it and maintained my usage. My usage hasn't changed much, yet Today, I got the call.

here is my page I was posting notes 2 years ago on, and now have updated with latest.

»www.livewxradar.com/comcast.htm

I looked for topics on this before posting, looks like I may be the first one to get nailed.

Unbelievable!

I know Comcast monitors or employees do. Would it be so hard to hire someone to make these calls, with half a brian and could advise me on what type of account I need if I wish to continue my currect usage?

The pro account and the regular account are the same when it comes to downloading.
To much is to much.:(

Did they just change that? When I moved to PRO from standard, I changed nothing and did not hear from abuse til today. Outside of static IP addy, kinda pointless to pay extra, and I think the standard is 8Mpbs.

Who every told you that the pro account allowed you to download more each month was wrong.
You haven't had a problem before because no one on your node complained.
All you have to do is slow down and you will be alright.

So you say I pay more for faster speeds because I plan to do the same load?

So you go to Burger King or whatever and order a KING sized meal and a double whopper only to take out one of the meats and fill your soda 1/4 of the way and eat half the fries to pay more?

Paying more for the same amount makes absolutely perfect sense to you?

Maybe you should read the post again.
It has nothing to do with speeds.

*FOR ME* paying more for the faster speeds is for the faster speeds, not more volume.
I want to get and sent my data faster, not get or send more of it.
This is a Resedential service. Business class service is not available *here* - even if I wanted it.

Comcast does have 5/5 upto 1gbps/1gbps... but it's not what I wanted(can't afford it if I did want it, and it's not available here).

THIS is true Business service:
