Rogers Bandwidth Fees?

[Keebler Elf]

Does Rogers still cap any overage fees at $25/month?

Will I be charged if I go beyond my monthly usage allowance?

Yes. If you exceed your monthly usage allowance, you will be charged as follows:

Ultra Lite – $5.00/GB to a maximum of $50.00
Lite – $4.00/GB to a maximum of $50.00 *
Express – $2.00/GB to a maximum of $50.00
Extreme – $1.50/GB to a maximum of $50.00
Extreme Plus – $1.25/GB to a maximum of $50.00
Ultimate – $0.50/GB to a maximum of $50.00

*Note for Lite customers: If you signed up for Lite before July 21st, 2010, your additional usage charges remains at $2.50/GB. Additionally, if you are a Lite customer living in the Atlantic, your additional usage charges remains at $2.50/GB

They still cap but it's now $50 above your monthly bill (as per Larry's post). They can shut you down if you really abuse it (know 3 people who have been cut off and declined internet service again) in the multi TB per month range...

Cheers

Thanks! I thought I remembered them changing the maximum penalty fee.

f**k Rogers,I am signing "ACANAC" They are much cheaper and you donn't even need to sign a contract plus they allow you unlimited downloads and uploads.

There was a report that netflix changed their service to accommodate Canadian ISPs..... I'm assuming a downgrading of the service to reduce bandwidth

OTB

Netflix says they found a more efficient way of sending the data.

Another move to put an arm bar on internet tv.
