[quote][i]Originally posted by Dom[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by bubble[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by noshua[/i] Basically they're saying "we bought the iphone and now we can't handle it's data throughput" [/quote] what a load od BS. all networks can apply a limit on data, the reason why this has had to happen, is because people were using a MOBILE INTERNET service incorrectly and tethering phones and using them as modems. this has been enforced as a result of people abusing the internet. we never charged if people went over 500mb, but greedy customers made this happen [/quote] So either Vodafone hasn't got the network to handle the throughput or they haven't got the bandwidth... A lot of people are pissed that they've been sold contracts on the basis of a 500mb FUP or 'unlimited' as Voda advertise, but it's just a piss taker that Voda are setting the hard cap far too low at 500mb as clearly a lot of customers will have to fork out the extra. If they set it at 1GB, which is far more reasonable, then i think Voda wouldn't be getting as much shit as they are. By setting it at a pathetic 500mb, it just makes you wonder if Voda have the network to deal with bandwidth or whether they're doing it to make a 'quick buck'. And it's another blow to the customer when they find out that the iPhone and Nexus get special treatment (it seems Voda aren't too sure why either) and a further kick to the Desire customers when they find out that a lot of them don't have a certain data plan, meaning that they'll be paying 50p per 25mb over the 500mb limit, instead of £5 per 500mb over the limit.
