What sort of internet plan do you have at home?

How much usage do you get per month? cost? other details?

NZ internet plans blow compared to the US and some other parts of the world.
My current setup is FS/FS, 15GB per month with free usage (doesn't count for monthly usage) between 1am-7am. $60 per month.

How do you deal with that?

Any other plans? I'd pay whatever amount of money for internet. Without it you are really at a disadvantage.

what if you use more than 15gb? they shut you off or do you pay overage? how much is overage?

sounds like you should open your own service provider.

I just pay $10 for every 5GB over per month. Its funny I went with a group of friends recently to a cricket match, got talking to this American dude over the course of the night. He was totally blown away by two things in NZ.....the terrible internet plans and the police aren't armed with guns. Having said that, there's alot of positives living here too of course
