Day 1

Transition from Orange ( never again!!) was seamless!! updates via text ! speedtests throughout day 1 seem fine.
love the usage graphs etc, so far I am seriously impresed - exellent package for the price 80gb and unmetered after 12!
I will be reccomending you to others without a doubt!

Had a bit of a letdown though! Usenet throttling throughout the day! didnt know that and was not told when I asked the sales guy!! can anyone confirm NO THROTTLING after 12am?
If I cant get decent DL on usenet its not really a premium service!
If its open after 12 I can live with it, after all I have lived with orange for 2 years - at least i can get hold of customer support with PN who speak English 🙂
Also the web interface is something any other ISP needs to behold, exactly as a user account should be --- acessible.
Even with the usenet hiccup I'm a happy bunny ( as long as the taps fully open after 12!!!!)

Have a look here for a guide to traffic shaping.
Pick your product from the drop down.
No restrictions between midnight and 8:00am except for the fact that a great many downloads are scheduled for this period as can be expected.

Hi, its a bit more brutal than that 😞
see here http://www.plus.net/support/broadband/speed_guide/download_speeds.shtml#premiumSpeeds
I am on the "Premuin" package pretty well throttled 😞

Not after midnight.

Midnight to midday should give decent performance on Usenet.
Worth mentioning that downloads between midnight and 8am are also not counted as part of your usage allowance.
