Hi, I have made the following observation;Please note that the download volume allowance is not reset exactly on the 1st of each month at midnight.I've observed that the start & end of the throttling of your bandwidth only takes place when your IP address is renewed. MT uses dynamic IP address allocation that is renewed every 22 hours I believe.
So, lets say ur IP address has been renewed at 23h this 28th of Feb, then ur IP will be renewed 1st March at 21h. The reset doesn't take place at 00h00 on the 1st of each month, as this would mean to reset and allocate new IP address to all MyT Fiber users subscribed to limited download packages simultaneously, this would add significant pressure to MT's network infrastructure.
In case you don't use internet after 21h, you will not notice the reset until the next time you connect.
If you want to benefit from the reset as from day one, I suggest turn on/off your router; so as to renew your IP address.P.S: I'm using MyT fiber since August 2014.

The volume allowance is from the date you got that connection.  The
internet connection is probably reset to the normal speed on that day
of the month.  I suggest asking about that date.
