I've used more bandwidth than ever before this month and so i'm getting close to that point where I believe there is some throttling. I've used 22GB of the allowed 30GB and I can't find the information about when the throttling kicks in and what limitations it forces. Can someone point me in the right direction please?

You're getting mixed up with the old Premier Option 2 product, which would become progressively throttled once someone used over 20GB of the 30GB allowance. With BBYW however, because it's designed on more of a pay-for-what-you-use basis, no special throttling kicks in after a certain amount of usage.

You're right, I did get the products mixed up. It's no wonder my search was fruitless! Thanks for clarifying.
