@dj280   Sure ..  they always say they can change it without notice at any time, but is that taking care of your customers?  Is that why banks have to inform you when they change their monthly charges for your bank account, but Comcast doesn't have to?     Living in this day and age of HD content, you need to adjust your limits especially when even comcast allows you to stream content via Xfinity on demand.   Here, we'll advertise that you can watch movies and shows online and we'll charge you when you go over the unrealistic limit too.   Enforce it on the people that download movies illegally etc. and don't hit on the people using legitimate services like Netflix, Hulu etc ... and yes ... they can do that if they want to. ...

Also .. I called they security and data usage and they told me that they sent an email out informing everyone.   I checked my Comcast email and I did not get any such email, nor anything in the post or a call.   So this was changing what I pay for without informing me.   How about we contact 11 Alive news in ATL ... I think they might just be willing to take this up on the news:     "Comcast enforces data limit on Comcast customers without informing them - are you paying extra??"       ... View more

Here is what Netflix shows .. Ultra HD is up to 7GB.  Come on Comcast ... you have to take this into acount.  I agree with everyone else, if I pay for Blast / Extreme I qualify for higher data usage too!!    (I can't show the screen capture)   HIGH - (Best video quality. Up to 3GB per hour for HD, 7 GB per hour for Ultra HD)       ... View more

That is fine if you are up to date with all the TV series and follow them regularly ... we never watched 24 or lost or Life and want to catch up on those.  Those you cannot get from XFinity on-demand because they do not keep all the shows all the time.     So if you want to catch up on 2, 5 or 6 seasons of a show, XFinity is not the place to go.  I also do not have a calbe box, I rub a HTPC so I have to watch via a PC hooked up to the TV, so no HD content there.   I have to say that Hulu and Netflix picture quality is really grate, so no, XFinity is not always the solution if you want to watch something a couple of seasons back. ...

I agree, the limit is useless for HD streaming, watch 4 Netflix Ultra HD shows and you are close to 20GB for the day. They should be realistic and increase it to 500GB .... I also can't wait for Google fiber etc to arrive!! Google and even U-verse fiber should jump on this with adds!! ... View more

I don't care that there is a cap, but I do care that it should be a realistic cap. In our day and age with services like Netflix and XFinity on demand and Hulu etc etc 300GB seems redicilous. Even their data calculator doesn't show HD streaming values. Yes, <Edited for violating forum guidelines: "Inflammatory"> and where we are there is no other service. I can't wait for u-verse internet or Google fiber to arrive. :( ... View more

That would be nice ... but how much more $$$ would that be?   I would really consider it if it is not too expensive.     I just think the the 300GB limit is not a realistic limit in this have of streaming HD content and multiple connected devices .... ... View more

I just got a call today that I reached my 300GB limit for the month.  I called and got a pretty rude response from the security and data usage department.  The guy told me in so many words that if I do not like or agree with the policy that I should feel free to find another service provider.!!!   I tried to explain that we watch Netflix and XFinity on-demand alot and I was told that that can not be anywhere close to the data usage.   I checked my router and watching a "super HD, dolby 5.1" TV show on Netflix will average about 5-6 GB per hour (1.6MB/s) ... sp this means that I can only watch no more than 1-2 Super HD TV shows a day via Netflix before I run out of my data usage.    This seems a bit redicilous doesn't it?   Maybe the TV ads about the higher speed than the competition should be accompanied with "as long as you don't use it too often" :(   Not a good experience ...  ...
