I recently got an email notifying me that my ISP has implemented data caps on all plans, and since I routinely exceed my new data cap of 1024GB/mo they will be charging me $10/50GB overage starting next month.

I think this is outrageous, so I’m shopping around for a new ISP, but there are only 2 or 3 that offer service to my house, and at least one of them is twice the price of my current ISP. I’m curious how everyone here is treated by their ISPs?

I’m paying $55/mo for 100Mbps down (actually get ~45mbps max), and I’m capped at 1024GB/mo. The next best ISP without a data cap is a maximum of 20Mbps down, for $60/mo.

$ = USD

    Fortunately, here in Brasil data caps never really got too popular outside of mobile plans, and with the switch to optic fiber finally reaching outside of the capitals plans are starting to get really good for really cheap, like I got mine from a local company, 150Mbps upload/download (which only reaches around 60-70Mbps upload, but I’m still more than satisfied with it) for 90BRL (~18USD) a month.
