Just logged into my account tonight as I reached my cap, and saw this: http://awesomescreenshot.com/04d4qh32 Just wondering if everyone else is seeing the same thing or whether it's just because I went over my cap...

I don't know if this means its gone or not but I'd say that since its still showing as an option on the website you can assume its not gone. I know that when I worked at Snap the plans and addons occasionally got updated when pricing or terms were changed and the old ones became retired - ie, you can stay on it but no one new can get it.

I wonder if the price has gone up because because people are downloading a lot more youtube data than they'd anticipated?

We have removed the $20 rural surcharge and evened out our Naked DSL pricing to $60 for 10Gb! Thanks for the update Any chance we may see a price drop one of these days? I have been looking around and there are a few other Naked DSL plans which seem far more competitive to my current plan on Snap.

I wonder if you could update it to make it lower than two dollars lol ;)
