Naw, if they don't notice it's on them, it's not your responsibility to monitor your connection constantly.
Edit: Oh right, you're in the US. Yeah they'll probably sue you and you'll end up in some federal ass-rape prison for stealing teh bandwidths!

I hope your right, the only thing I'm afraid of is getting hit with insane internet charges. The 100/25 costs around $200 here... and I don't need those charges right now.
I guess if anything happens, I can just play dumb and be like "I don't even know what internet speed is... I never asked you to change my plan...wtf"
Either way, I'm going to enjoy the shit out of this while I can.

Just make sure you have a copy of your invoice or statement kept somewhere for around this time to prove that what you requested is that specific package and you should be fine.
As long as you got that, it's on them for giving you more than you asked for.

^^ that's some very nice speeds there dude.
good tip about the invoices. It is all online, so I'll make sure to save a few pdfs of the bill from the last few months just in-case I need them.
I'm going to ride this out for as long as I can, pretty amazing to me being able to have this speed. I remember being wowed in the early 2000's about being able to download an mp3 @ 200KB/s when I first got cable internet...

lol. Had ISDN at that time. Hooray @ 7 KB/s, but it was way better for online gaming than my first DSL line.

Waiting here, UPC just introduced 200/20 mbit packages, not long before Ziggo is going to do the same
Then it's bye bye vs this:

thats what we have ... in switzerland ... you know ... in the city with the big ass ring underneath where they accelerate particles and stuff ...
Oh we also have upc cablecom up to 100/7 mbit , but only in the city itself and not even everywhere there.
Thats what you get, when you privatize telecom and cable companies, but don't allow any competition ...
