BB+ seems to get throttled, but not in any very clearly defined or consistent way, after you hit around 1.5GB peak usage (this was acknowledged by PN staff on the old forums during the February BB+ debacle)
If you're not over that number then the chances are there's a technical problem somewhere I guess?

Hi there,
What gateway are you on? I've checked your account and no additional throttling should be in place on your line Huh
I'm guessing you're victim to BT's bRAS profiling.
