I was getting these monthly while on premier. But i have about 6 people at
any given time pulling data, Gaming, Streaming video, ect. so i would pop
my cap  pretty readily, pushing upwards of 450GB/month.

If your router/firewall supports it turn on metering and watch where you
pull data and how. If there is a client you don't recognize then you might
want to kick it off your network to see.

I actually increased my service because i use the data, and want the extra
speed, but not because of their email. Right now it is only a notification,
but i imagine new service will eventually have a surcharge associated with
it. and then pushing people of into a fully metered service, much like
mobile providers.

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
