Comcast over the data cap

[Brujesino]

So I went over the data usage cap and it sayd ill be charged $10 every 50gb I go over up to $100. So if im already getting charged the extra $100 can I just keep downloading games at no extra charge right?


I did not think things ahead when my I let my brothers download all they're next gen games at my house since I have fast internet by the time I got my next gen console I already went past the data cap.:(

Comcast are crooks. Anyone that has a cap in these pandemic times where all we can do is stream things to watch or play, is a disgrace.

Data caps on home internet are such bullshit. Did not enjoy that part of living in AZ and having to use Cox. And it's only a matter of time for Charter/Spectrum to introduce them.

Internet infrastructure in general should be better in the US. I understand we're geographically massive, but some other first world nations' speeds and coverage just put us to shame.

Agreed with both of you the cap is bullshit.

So I wont be charged any over $100 so I guess I can go crazy. Halo 5 is 100gb and Master Chief Collection is 138gb. My brothers downloaded warzone and I hear thats almost 200gb:eek:

Apparently you do not, lol.

I'm not up to date on data cap stuff, is it still a big issue. For home Internet, I mean. Of course on cellphone data it probably is.
