No meter? No problem. AT&T is still happy to charge you

AT&T implemented a broadband cap a little over a year ago, yet AT&T isn’t letting all of its customers track their broadband usage — which would be pretty useful information if you’re trying to stay under the cap.

For an undetermined number of subscribers AT&T hasn’t yet provided access to its online data meter, but that hasn’t stopped Ma Bell from implying that customers need to beware of what they download. It sounds like AT&T will send customers letters or emails if they go above the 250 GB cap for high speed users and 150 for DSL users, but they won’t be charged those first two times. However if that customer continues to exceed the cap even without a meter AT&T is going to charge them.
