20 - 40 Gb "Non- Unbundled" Exchange

GDBD59

My package with BT is Anytime calls & 10Gb b/band.
Myself & daughter are exceeding the 10Gb per month so need to increase.
Problem is, next BT b/band step-up is only for free evening & weekend calls.

What I'd like is 20 or 30Gb, & anytime calls. Anyone know whether BT are flexible.....or is there another b/band supplier that will do it in a bundled exchange (ie using BT equipment)?

This is an issue that affects so called market 1 exchanges particularly, since there's only one supplier (BT Wholesale) who in turn charges everyone else. So pricing and benefits are constrained by the fact that while you can choose between ISPs at that exchange, they all have to pay BT for the underlying service rather than using their own equipment.

If you're bored enough, this expands on the above:

However you can find ISPs with better allowances. This thread is relevant to you

Downloading one movie is typically 1.2GB by itself
