I'm sorry your internet sucks.

I appreciate your apology.

500 speed and a 5 TB cap is the best in the area and costs $100 a month.

I'm on the 200 / 2TB plan for $70 a month.

That we still have data caps in 2023 is equal parts insane and frustrating. It'd be one thing if we were talking about farmland that only gets reached by satellite, but it's so baffling that we have major suburban/urban regions that still have only one ISP offering shitty, slow, capped internet. Sincerely hoping that 5G leapfrogs some of the infrastructure nonsense and opens up competition in those areas.

I was thinking Comcast set a generalized cap on all customers at 1.2TB per month starting January 2022 so I'm surprised the number isn't higher, unless a lot of them just don't know

I use Comcast so if that is the case then they did a poor job of notifying people about the decrease in cap size. Which would be pretty par for the course for them.

I checked again and apparently missed that they halted plans for the data cap in their "Northeast Region." According to their website, "The Plan is not applicable in our Northeast markets, including CT, DE, MA, MD, ME, NH, NJ, NY, PA, VA, VT, WV, the District of Columbia, and parts of NC and OH." There doesn't seem to be any plan for them to try again for the region either.

But that was with regard to locations that didn't have a bandwidth limit in the first place, so locations they've capped all along could be a different story. I dunno.

Ah that is probably it then. We already had caps based on speed, they probably left those as is.
