Telecom Refunds

Telecom are set to make several million dollars of refuneds to customers on their Go Large plan for heavy Internet users. Heavy as in their usage not their girth 🙂

It seems the traffic shaping which was meant to apply to file sharing only was applied to all usage including browsing and e-mail. In other words everything went slow.

No wonder people were so unhappy when you sign up for the gruntiest plan and end up with the opposite.
