How much data is to much?

Just checked to see what my broadband use was for my last month and shocked to see is was 1142GB so has got me think how much is to much?

If you can find a limit could you let me know? Grin

 

Was averaging 3-4TB a month for around half a year at one point, can promise you there's no limits, use it as much as you like Smiley

Re: How much data is to much?

Hi @Macc2018

 

If you have a recent account, all our products are unlimited data.

The only time you would start to experience issues is if you exceeded a certain threshold that the line is capable of. For example, if your download is maxed out then information requests will struggle to leave your router to the outside world and the small data packets used to confirm data has been received will not be sent to the outside server making it look like speed problems. This will therefore cause speed delays or even terminations preventing access altogether.

Many thanks

Absolutely Smiley there really is no cap or limit to how much you can download or upload
