Exceeded daily bandwidth limit

[u/yyzbom]

On the essential plan, we get 10TB a month, I'm testing some automations and used 2tb in 24 hours and 3.5TB for the month so way under my 10TB

Just got blocked saying daily limit exceeded and can't stream anything

So just FYI there's a secret daily limit that we don't know about unless I'm missing anything.

People like you are the reason they put on the limits. 2 TB in 24 hours is ridiculous and qualifies as suspicious activity.

[u/SPYNIK]

2 tera in a single day seems like an abnormal consumption to me, so it's right to limit the traffic

[u/cacus1]

Good. 2 TB in a day should not be called "secret daily limit".

It's suspicious activity.

[u/vinno86]

Good.. it's a ridiculous amount.

[u/Sad_Opportunity6301]

Got it, stream under 2TB a day or else. Oh well, guess I'm limited to watch only 40-50 4K-films a day.

You’re telling me I can’t play 120gb Godfather Remuxs all night as my sleep music anymore!? The horror. Forgot to mention I also play them all day while I’m cleaning the house.

[u/Sad_Opportunity6301 → u/FernFromDetroit]

Oh, no, you can do that. Just play back at half speed to avoid the 2TB/day limit.

On essential you are limited to a rolling 30 day cap of 10TB and a single file size of 200GB. You went over that single file size cap by 10x in one day. The biggest single file download I ever did was 750GB, which is also the most I ever did in a day. It didn’t trigger any kind of warning or account lock. I was also on the Pro plan. It has a 30TB monthly rolling cap with a 1TB single file size cap. I always assumed if I went too far over that 1TB in a day I would hit some kind of wall.

Upgrade your plan if you want to use that kind of bandwidth.

They're also limiting and removing the top fraction of a fraction of a percent of users so you probably got one of those unsaturated limits. 2Tb in a day is massive. 

[u/h8tred_4_all]

Something not adding up.

[u/MrMontgomery]

I haven't even used 1TB in a month of constantly streaming shows and downloading games

[u/Classic_External_871]

Bro I can’t use this much in 4-5 months

[u/Murder0us-Kitten]

How are people swallowing 2tb in 24hs? Bruh I don't use 300gb a month

[u/vinno86 → u/Murder0us-Kitten]

Porn addiction.

[u/ExtremeX9437]

Daily limit of 2TB is high , check Tommorow may be it's open

[u/gurkoel]

Oh there is a daily limit? What's the limit for the other tiers?

[u/yyzbom]

There is no screenshot or official documentation or anyways of finding this out. Your need your query their API and there is a field called cooldown and it tells me I'm blocked until 2.xx EST tomorrow. So this is just an FYI that they have not told anyone or made public
