What happens if I exceed my allocated bandwidth?

You will receive an automatic e-mail message warning you that you have reached 80% of your contracted limit. If it is more than 80%of the way through the month, do nothing. Otherwise decide if this is one-time (we will reset your account if it goes over) or ongoing, and if the latter, upgrade your account.
