    OT: Stop The Meter On Your Internet Use

    I don't think we would have gotten as much support from the Liberals, NDP and PC if it was not for the up coming election. At least this will give us time and it helped people become aware of how greedy and controlling these companies have become.

    My Package Got Beaten Up Bad

    The post needs to take better care of packages look at what I received a couple days ago. Thankfully Eastmall does a good job wrapping everything but if I had juice in the order I don't think it would have survived.

    That won't save you from the caps because your still sending data, all the encryption does is prevent people from reading your data it does not reduce your data usage it will increase it.

    If your looking at your current usage don't because as the internet evolves you will use more and more data and the companies know this thats why they are doing this. This is also about squashing competition like Netflix and others from operating in Canada. The problem is most of the internet...

    Interesting story about Netflix usage basically if you watch one SD 45min program per day you will consume half of the 60GB cap. What happens when you have 3 or 4 people in the house 60GB would be consumed very fast. Netflix and usage-based billing: Does it make a difference to your Internet...

    If this is allowed to continue the caps will get smaller the overage charges will get larger. You like Netflix did you know that when Netflix announced they were coming to Canada 2 days later Rogers decreased their caps. If this allowed to continue soon you will be paying for every web page you...

    Here is what Bhell wants to charge 3rd party resellers to bump speeds from 5Mb to 6Mb

    OT: Stop The Meter On Your Internet Use

    The overage charges are insane, to put it into perspective Amazon charges $0.03 per gig and Netflix pays $0.025 per gig so how can Bhell justify charging $1.25 per gig. What really pisses me off is Bhell did not provide any evidence of network congestion to get UBB passed. The CRTC is corrupt...

    The UBB kicks in March 1 so going to any DSL provider except a few cities where Primus has service you'll be hit with a huge bill increase.

    Going to Acanac will not save you from UBB they are a Bhell reseller like Teksavvy. You defiantly can save going to VOIP over POTS
