Hi. Does anyone know if Rain has a threshold on how much data you can use before they limit your speed? For the past two months I've struggled to even watch youtube on 360p, but tonight i returned from work to find my internet is miraculously faster? Youtube is streaming at 720p, and I have torrents downloading at the same time. My usage for the last two months was less than 100gigs per month so I'm doubting the possibility that I was throttled for using too much data. I'm on the 24hour uncapped package and this is the first time I'm seeing it perform this well! I'm shocked!
Anyone else experiencing better speeds tonight? Does it being the first of a new month have something to do with it? Did they fix their network?

I am curious as well. There is nothing explicitly stated in their TOS but I have a similar feeling.
My usage has ramped up quite a bit working from home/playing more games. My best guess is it is more probably that it is related to changes in lockdown and peoples usage.

Don’t get your hopes up ... rain can be good some days then bad the next ... it’s one of those ... unfortunately

Sadly you are right. The good speeds lasted for all of two days, now its gone back to being utter sh*t again. Just cant win with Rain unfortunately

Those are extremely good speeds even when they are low.
