This is interesting to me. I used to use JS Surf but switched to UBS. At first, I used 40gb or over no problem. Then about 2 months before I moved to UBS, Telecom started capping me to 64k, quite fast too (usually within having used 15-20gb if I recall correctly). This cap seemed to stay... Hmm I was using Orcon as my ISP, maybe this lenient capping policy only applies to Xtra users? :-P

So you're telling me they're still not capping a lot of people properly? Maybe I should move back to JS Plus or whatever it's called now :-P
