For almost an entire month they were consistently adding 2gb to each day. For the past few weeks it has been accurate. I agree J.Kopp. Such a rigged system. So bad for consumers. Re: New Gig upgrade has 1TB data limit? Good for you buddah, Why pay for speed when you get punished for using it? The business model is predatory and misleading. Like Jchambers mentioned, it's best to take a lower tier and maybe add data. it is ridiculous. For many customers Cox called shortly after the data caps were implemented and offered a deal to lock your bill from increases (which was happening every three months). In essence I am stuck in premium and locked in a two year deal. Ironically these calls happened shortly after data caps were implemented. This company treats their customers like **. Re: Data Usage jump from 400GB to 1500GB in two months, and no change to our usage This data cap is beyond greedy. What a blatant money grab. Their customers pay for high speed internet and then get punished for using it. The sad thing is they have a monopoly on most markets. Re: My Insane data usage solved!!! So think about this... You pay a premium for high speed internet. Then you get punished for using it. Nice business model, Cox. Re: Is anyone happy that Cox is their only internet provider? Exactly. There is no need for high data speeds when they punish their customers for using data. Customers might as well go with the low speed tier, because the value of speed is nullified under these conditions. Re: Is anyone happy that Cox is their only internet provider? Cox robs their customers of value so they can put more money into their pockets (data caps). It wouldn't be that big of a deal, if there were alternative services. But they have a monopoly... so too bad for us. Just remember Cox business practices if an alternative actually comes to market. Re: Extreme increase in data usage Paying $100 a month for internet, and have to stress about data use. This is ridiculous. Everyone who pays for additional data are encouraging this kind of bad business. As soon as an alternative comes around (5g maybe), I'm getting out of this extortion of service. Yes I have seen increases in data usage as well. For no reason. Like crazy increase. I monitor it everyday. I have to limit everything I do so I don't go over my limit and have to pay unfair overage fees. This is what a monopoly looks like folks.
