Guess What is it me or the CAP AINT IN place, I've downloaded over 3 gig my total CAP, So decided to dissconnect and reconnect to WBS/iBURST network, Known that my 3 CAP is used up.


I've downloaded over 1 GIG over night, can that be possible on 64 kb/s throttle
 
Okay - now you know that you are abusing them.

You'd better send off an email saying that the cap thingy aint working and that you're scared of getting your name pasted in all the newspapers as an abuser and a hacker. But that's not all, they may decide to just cut you off on monday and force you to buy more bandwidth.

I'd run and hide if I woz you. :D
 
Before I got suspended my connection was very slow during the day (2-7KB/s) but was much faster after 18:30.

BTW, rebel never downloaded during the day as he respects business customers who need the bw much more than him.

And yes, he was throttled most of the time.
 
It's pouring this side & I got disconnected 3 times. My connection seems more stable now and my download is going at 60KB/s. What happened to the 64k cap??? I'm not stopping it, they might as well suspend me.
 
Seems CAP is in place now, After phone some PPL at WBS, and telling them about the problem, What I don't like about the bandwitdh monitor it counts all bandwidth we do, to me that is C***P, why should it count just now they going to say Im abuse, Well i'll talk to the guys at WBS again today, to see If there CAP is in place. I'm not taking any chances & getting my account suspended.
 
I disconnected @ 5 b4 leaving for work. That cap better be working when I get home.
 
now if there was a way to rack up a reverse charge phone call via a cellphone, so that you sit on hold at R2.70 (or whatever it is) per minute, waiting for Iburst to answer the phone. I figure that'll make them speed up their standard 15minutes+ of making customers wait, before someone deals with their problem.

Hmm, anyone work in an office on a switchboard, and feel like calling WBS offices and systematically re-dialling and putting each of THEIR lines on hold? (Thus blocking WBS's ability to do business, like they're doing to their customers)

That would be funny LOL.
 
a zillion years ago, I worked on a switchboard - so its very easy to do, as long as you have 'spare' lines - just call the company, they answer, you put that line on 'hold' - and keep calling back till all you get are 'engaged' tones. Long as you have more spare lines than they do, of course :) Unless things have changed in the structure of 'how lines work' - that's all thats needed to lock a company up for as long as you want :P
