Why on earth are they putting the cap back, that's ridiculous. Will it be a different APN or everywhere but with a cap, also is this just for Full Monty? Orange isn't affected is it?
Also how do you know this, you got any proof? Can't tell you but it's reliable. If it doesn't happen on the 16th you can lambast me then

Fortunately it was a 1 month contract so I just told them to shove it.
And their coverage is so much better than the likes of Vodafone. Quote:
There was plenty of "local network conditions" as an excuse, so that must be why across Cornwall my phone always got a precise 1.8Mbps and a 3 phone in the same place got far more).
I have e-mails in which I was told there absolutely no speed cap, that they didn't exist, that it must be my handset or the network in my area. Then after they added the booster and the speeds increased, I asked again if there was no such things as a speedtest and, funnily enough, no reply Quote:

Look, I don't want to get arsey about this but I simply can't tell you. I also can't tell you why I can't tell you. Can I ask that you please don't ask me again.
I know that sounds crap but there are reasons why and I'm not prepared to go into that. I will not be responding to anymore requests for this kind of info. And really, I'm not being funny or trying to piss you off. |

We used to have a member of staff post here with info, but he's not allowed to now. Chances are Devon has been tipped off by PM or something at a guess.
Obviously he won't say, but I should imagine it's something like that. |

If tethering is an optional add-on for your plan you'll be taken to a landing page to order it. £5 a month normally.

Im currently getting 8.17 down and 1.97 up. I will be majorly annoyed if this affects me.
I am on the original full monty (with tethering) and can use the phone while away from home to get access for my work. The systems I use are slow as it is but are bearable with a faster internet connection. |

I wonder if they're going to continue to deny a cap once it's reinstated. Or whether they'll update their traffic management information, which currently says they don't slow down any services.

The cap being removed is the only reason I moved back to tmobile on the full monty plan..
Will we have grounds for early termination without penalty? Really not happy with this news. |

No you won't. FM plans always had a speed cap. The removal was temporary. Now it's being put back.

I suppose the generic traffic management statement in the contract will cover it, but they'll have to update their traffic management information to reflect that FM speeds are capped. Or just lie about it like they did before. |

I think its obvious now why there doing this, Firstly to make the somewhat slow and unreliable LTE service look faster, its obvious they are having capacity problems.
