Should fine those companies who say it's 'unlimited' which is clearly not. Such as O2 500MB per month ... pathetic.

Have they called their new 500MB unlimited though? Its unlimited now. but then?

Would it not be more like T-Mob Unlimited but it's 3gb fair usage?

Although with T-Mob if you go over the 3gb you don't get charged they just slow the speeds, so I suppose it could be classed as unlimited...

That's how all of these "unlimited" tarriffs should run.. they shouldn't use the word "unlimited" if the user is charged once they hit the FUP, as it's clearly not "unlimited." Orange will charge me per MB if I go over 500MB despite me being on an "unlimited" data tarriff.
