77 TERAbytes in one month????? Yeah, not at all surprised that they cracked down.

I got yelled at for going over 250 GB.

We have never even came close to 250Gb usage per month.Stream quite a bit of stuff,d/load a few things,and still not even close.Obviously folks using 77 terabytes are doing something they shouldn't be.I wouldn't mind having the luxury of a 300-350 limit but,I'm not going to complain with 250.

I have no idea what my limit is, nor do I know how much I use. Apparently it is not over what they allow.

I've never really kept an eye on what I'm using. Its in the multi-terabytes though. Good thing I'm a "Business" customer.

At 77 TB that is a heck of a lot of bandwidth. That is roughly 2.5 TB per day which is 10 times the monthly allowance. They went through their monthly allowance in 2-3 hours. That user may have been using a server or used it for business purposes.

I don't feel bad for this guy. They should cut him off, or put him on a plan where they charge him per gigabyte.
