• I think their broadband SIM plans are, but it sounds like velocio is using a mobile SIM. They throttle those after 60 GB to try stop people from using them in a router

    I am.

    It was a total screw up.

    I asked for a Home-Fi in-store, they didn't have a Home-Fi unit, so I tried to order online, saw the SIM deal (£20 for unlimited data), ordered it... but no Home-Fi so ordered that, put the SIM in and up and running.

    However... it's not classed as a Home-Fi contract, so it's a mobile contract, and unlimited does not mean that because the throttling kicked in earlier than I expected.

    I spoke to their phone support, and no way out of the contract (ordered online but only noticed throttling on day 15) and they don't count it as mis-sold even though I was led down the path I followed by their shop and online.

    I just didn't pay enough attention and only discovered it later.

    Now it's just an open Wi-Fi route, I'll pay the contract and cancel ASAP and just let the students next door view their porn through it. I've configured it to be an open Wi-Fi point and anything that gets me kicked off the contract is good.
