'yes' Data for Optus Broadband (1 Viewer)

[AsyLum]

A new Internet Usage Meter will replace My DataMonitor shortly. Until that time, customers eligible for 'yes' Data will enjoy unmetered off-peak data between 2am and 9am (Sydney time).

NEW! BONUS 'YES' DATA - OFF PEAK DATA

For those that dont know what it means, basically, if you're on the Unlimited Pro* (12gb) or Unlimited Pro** (20gb) plans, you have double your normal usage (so 24 for the Pro* and 40 for the Pro**) during the hours of 2am-9am.

Also, if you were to exceed the off-peak usage, it would start to eat into your normal peak usage, but it doesnt work the other way, you just get capped if you use the peak usage(normal 12 or 20gbs).

with uni and a busy life in general i hardly ever pass 12gigs as it is!

[redslert]

quoting yourself and replying to it is considered the first sign of madness!

 

[AsyLum]

First? Haha i make madness an artform

Actually it means that until they release the new meter, downloading between 2am and 9am is not counted at all, so it's not 24 and 40 it's truly unlimited(between those hours).

 

[fatmuscle]

that 1 extra hour helps!

 

[redslert]

there has been reports, on whirlpool, that it is still between 2am-8am

People really need to read posts through a thread rather than just one.

the whole quoting myself is getting annoying

when are they going to offfer any bonus' to the 1gb plan

 

[fatmuscle]

never, then you'll all be dirty leechers

It wouldnt be profitable at this point. Those plans are entry-level plans, for those non-heavy users.

Until 56k is totally phased out, and the entry level is raised to the point that 12gbs becomes obsolete (which it is but thats another matter) then you wont see bonuses for their cheapest plans.
