I heard about it first today after I complained about my internet speeds deteriorating on WiMax. Is it even Fair that I was never informed about it, ever? If you have the contents of this policy, please can you paste it here.

It's a rather long document

Is your problem to do with daytime speeds? ZOL throttles persistent high downloads during the day, prioritizing business package traffic until 5pm. The speed picks back up after a while once you stop the heavy usage. Save heavy streaming and downloads for after hours and you should be ok.

This little program helped me visualise the levels of usage that trigger throttling
