<p>Here on GEEK!, I&#8217;m fed up with ISPs that claim they supply unlimited broadband when they actually don&#8217;t, after you&#8217;ve spent ages reading the Fair Use Policy.</p>
<p>I think this is totally unfair and must be stopped. If ISPs don&#8217;t want us to use as much bandwidth as we like, then they should say so, before they tangle us in a 12 or 18 month contract. It&#8217;s stupid!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not going to mention ISPs that do this &#8211; but there are plenty. It&#8217;s totally unfair that ISPs expect us to read a fair usage policy and understand what bandwidth is. I do, but most people don&#8217;t have time to dig through pages of FUPs and frankly aren&#8217;t interested.</p>
<p>It must stop here. GEEK! has set up a petition and if you have a problem with ISPs falsely promoting &#8220;unlimited&#8221; usage broadband please feel free to sign it below. You&#8217;re information won&#8217;t be given to any third party other than Ofcom if GEEK! decides to hand the petition results over. All that is required is your name and email address.</p>
<p>If GEEK! gets enough people on the list, he&#8217;ll hand it over to Ofcom and see what they say.</p>
<p>Thanks for your interest in the petition.</p>
