Hi

Yes, this usage limit business is a pain.  As you can see, I'm with plus.net 
and not on the cheapest deal and still restricted to a 20 Gig limit, which I'd 
exceeded a couple of times.  But I'd argue, at least I know where the 
boundaries are as nany ISP's have a fare usage policy but it's difficult to 
establish in numeric terms what fare is, as a number of Gigabytes.

I understand that Bulldog announced last week in a BBC report that they'd not 
be limiting their users.
