Hi all just wondering of anyone else experiencing a speed cut on xtra go large plan - i have downloaded 44 gig in about a month so not sure if ive been put into that fair use policy where speeds are cut back? If you are put into this pool does telecom email you to tell you or do you just guess? Thanks for the info

Where are your speeds being affected? In general web browsing or just your (what I assume used your 44GB) P2P traffic?

This & This may shed some light.

Thanks mate its just my web browsing speed seems to have taken a hit I guess its because of my overuse of P2P applications fair enough i guess but would be nice if they had contacted me about it (like they say they would) so I could have adjusted my usage before speed cutback - Cheers for the info

44Gig in less than a month, and we wonder why they see a reason to impose some limits. Poor other users on you DSLAM, guess they see an improvement now.

Maybe its just me, but 44G is what I might concider was a heavy year.
