I have a week left to my current internet billing cycle as well as 500mb of bandwidth remaining. It seems that a 2GB limit is my magic number. It’s enough so that I can do pretty much anything I need or want to do, but not so much that I can surf blindly. I think twice about downloading and streaming (I miss Youtube!), but otherwise bandwidth is not my foremost concern. 3GB would definitely be the number for me, but the next plan up is 5GB, which is way too much, so I’m sticking with 2GB for now. I am also considering moving to the ‘flex plan’, whereby I would be automatically moved up or down a plan based on my usage, but I don’t trust Telus enough to do that yet.

So far, I am very satisfied with both my internet connection and Telus customer service. Internet independence is awesome!
