Here is sunny NZ I'm on a package called "surf unlimited"
Its 256Kbit/sec, with a 10gig/month cap. Costs me $69.95 a month,
which is 24.60UKP. If I exceed 10gig, then bandwidth drops to 64K.
You can get faster packages, but they paradoxically lower gig
allowances (ie 1 or 2mbit/sec with 1 or 2 gig/month cap, then
20c/gig therafter) or slower packages with more allowance, eg, 128Kb
with 15GB and x cents per gig thereafter.
In practice, even whilst in the UK, as a houshold we were well
within 10gig/month. I've just checked now; we're at 4907.37 MB and
the month runs out on the 11th.
