TalkTalk usage limit

I understand Talk Talk have given up monitoring and enforcing the usage limits for their Essentials package. I downloaded 2 PS3 games today at 20GB and obviously there are 20 days left in the month so I will probably hit 60GB downloaded on a supposedly 40GB package, what chances do you rate me not being asked to upgrade my broadband package?

Is unlimited Essentials only for NEW customers (or people renewing their contracts)? Or are they applying it generally?

I suspect many TT customers are only on the Plus package because of the "unlimited" broadband, so unlimited Essentials will be cheaper for them. I can't see TT willingly giving up revenue without there being something in it for them.

The Plus package has faster speeds. Also maybe they aren't strictly enforcing the download limit but will still enforce it if you regularly exceed it by a large amount.

Faster speeds UP TO what your line can handle,not I pay for 10MB & I should get 10MB when you can only get 6MB.

And there is no difference in speed between Plus and Essentials if you're on LLU.

if its only the first time your gonna exceed your allowance then they wont do nothing.. worse case they charge you £5 for the extra 40gb boost
