    You've been flamed for years on usenet? With your posting style i'm not surprised...haven't you learnt anything? There you go again, quoting 50 irrelevent lines of text from sreq...

    You're obviously just as bad as he is.

    His line about massive attack was the heroics, not the rest of what he said

    Is it my imagination or has IOL improved over the last couple of days. Last evening the download speeds were in excess of 47K for me in Swords where previously at evening times 3 - 10 were the norm !!!

    They've more bandwidth, it's been talked about here or in one of the other threads.

    They have indeed improved according to this and other threads.
    -snip-
    which will be set up in t-minus 19 days ahh the joys 20:1 8 meg
    -snip-

    If your a business customer (ie getting it for a company) then thats 19 working days ;)
    If not accounts may be on to you asking for a deposit, they were on to me yesterday (well my contact in EsatBT was). Apparently they wanted a deposit of €125 (installation) but since im only paying half that install fee i only have to pay hald that deposit wise :)

    Officially i should be switched on by end of next week but i have a feeling the 19 days starts now :(

    The cap is on downloads only according to the person I was talking. So according to IOL phone people, the 5GB cap is on data transfer and downloads. How can these people not know these answers to the most basic questions! Does anyone have an IOL application form? Does it say whether its a download or data transfer cap on it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 743 ✭✭✭UbahOne


    You will be entitled to download up to 5 Gigabytes of information in any given month. If you go over this limit then we reserve the right to charge you for any additional downloaded material (at 3cent inc VAT per MB)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 116 ✭✭Spud_Gun


    Then why are some people in IOL saying that this is a data transfer rate, i.e. that you upload is included in the 5GB cap?

    take them to the letter, if your contract says "you are entitled to DOWNLOAD...." then upload away, and if they try and make you pay for uploading 10 gigs, show them you're contract. They can't touch you if it says download in the contract.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 743 ✭✭✭UbahOne


    Spud just think about this logically for a second...Is there a download limit? "You are entitled to download up to 5gb of data in any given month".

    DOWNLOAD. IOL must be retarded or something...it says it there.

    PS: Mutant_fruit, i went into Game on grafton street yesterday to buy half life and they were looking for 30yo yo's. so i walked it...came home here and was told about play.com. Bought it for 7.99 including free delivery...

    It is routine to quote the person whom you are responding to, just as the text above is what i am responding to now.

    Might be irrevelent to you, but it's routine from all the newsgroups and forums i have subscribed to quote the person in full so as others understand the context to which you are responding.

    Is she cute? ;)

    this really is completely off topic but:

    yes its polite to quote relevant bits, not the whole damn post ;)
    Reason people complain is that it makes the page that much longer and for the poor people on 56k this can cause a lot of extra data* if everyone did it. Dont forget the poor people on 56k (ISDN) now that your on broadband ;)

    *ok this is a bit of a lie, doubt it causes that much extra data but it makes the page look messy and is unecessary.

    Is she cute? ;)
    Too cute for you busta ;) *

    *I've never met Etho_ so the above may or may not be true
    Just thought i put this in before people try to ridicule my posts for giving some mis-information (Esat style)

    soz for the totally off topic post :ninja:

    You are not sharing 512kbps with 47 other people. The actual value is much higher depending on your exchange, but the limit at which your connection will work is 512kbps.

    We've established this, now we need to establish a way to block all 47 others people so one can hog the DSL line for themselves.

    :D
