Hi all, 

We've recently started getting our usage metered (we have 2 TiVos and have been on the 150GB plan with spark for years so haven't ever worried about data as it was always unlimited), and we're about to hit our cap half way through the month. 

We were looking at moving to the unlimited plan but we've had experience with the last time or 2 spark tried to do unlimited, and it was less than ideal. The lovely team on their online chat said they don't shape traffic, but I've learnt to take their answers with a bit of caution. 

Can anyone confirm this is the case before we make the switch? Moving ISPs isn't an option either.
And also, do we get a static IP still included in the charges?

Cheers!
Sam.
