Download Limit NotesThis package comes with a set download limit which may restrict the amount you can download. This package is suitable for light usage; here are some helpful representations of downloading:

  • 60 hours web surfing = 1.5GB

  • 1 Music Album = 0.06GB

  • 10 Min Video Clip on Youtube = 0.2GB

  • Low definition movie = 0.75GB

  • DVD quality movie = 4.5GB

  • 10 hours of internet radio = 1.2GB


Download Limit Exceed NotesIf you exceed the fair usage allowance you will be informed and have your speed limited, further excessive usage will result in continuous speed limitations until you upgrade.

The stated download limit does not cover overseas use. You will therefore be charged £1.5 / per MB in any European county outside the UK (£7.5 / per MB outside Europe).
