    Since Eircom have rolled out the NGB, there now monitoring and charging for going over the download allowance. Ive a 10gb download allowance and this month Ive exceeded it 12 days into the month, without doing any real downloading, no tv shows, films or music this month. Ive a feeling this could be a money making scam for Eircom, has anyone else noticed? Its basically forcing us to pay more for a unlimited allowance package

    It's not "unlimited" (that's a marketing scam) it has a 10G limit.

    From last March :

    Some of the pricing details have changed but the essential message is still the same.
