Speed trap.

I exceeded my throughput limit. My high speed broadband has been stopped in it's tracks. Before that happens I'm supposed to get a notice from my ISP - however I didn't get any notice. I spent half the morning waiting to talk to them about how they accidentally deactivated my primary email, then the rest of the day trying to figure out why the system was going so slow. After reconfiguring my network several times, changing all passwords, removing a few gigabytes of excess data - I found out I had exceed my limit. I've tried to check it several times over the last few weeks, but they've been working on their website and it doesn't actually function anymore. Thanks alot - 'Just say the word!'..... Only one word coming to mind and I know it's not what they intended. They play those horrible jingles repeatedly telling you how great they are... So you struggle with the urge to smash your phone... potentially exacerbating any communication problems you already had, before seeking 'assistance'.
As much as I'd like to be adding to my blog - I think I'll try to avoid the internet almost completely until they give me back my speed.
