How come Charter/Time Warner ISP doesn't have a data cap?

[pcslookout]

Do you think they ever will ?

Why are you complaining about isp not capping?

 

[whm1974]

Yeah really. I have Charter and Hell no I'm not going to complain about having no data caps.

Basically, Charter started the "no cap" as a selling point against AT&T.
Will they ever do away with it? Hope not.

 

[Anubis]

because they suck slightly less vs other ISPs

 

[shortylickens]

Why?
Does it involve touching the dinosaurs at night?



No but seriously my current FIOS plan has a cap but its insanely huge and I'd never get near the limit.

Charter is sloooow compared to other cable companies. Atleast here in SoCal, they just recently upped speeds from 30/4 to 60/5. *clap clap*

Maybe, but I'm fine with their service for now. I haven't had any problems with them.

i'd use less data if i didn't have a data cap. make a resource scarce and i'll treat it like one. i used ~600 GB/month before having a datacap, since they've implemented it i've used ~1000 GB/month except that one month that i decided to burn a freebie where i used ~2 TB.

My ISP (Bell) has no cap either. I'm super glad they don't, especially when I hear that most ISPs seem to have one now days.

I feel now days it's not just the speed of the connection that matters, but whether or not it has a cap. no point in having 100mbps or higher if it's capped.
