The Home::1 service has aan quotaoption amountfor perno monthmonthly whichusage youcap or a monthly usage quota. You can choose the option when orderedordering and you can change during the life of the service. There is also a quota bonus of half of the unused quota from the previous month being added to the next. When the quota is reached variousthe thingsline couldwill happengo suchslow asand theuse linequota being blocked,from the servicenext set to go slowmonth or forit thecan systembe set to automatically apply a top-up (and charge for it) More details below... (We used to have an option to block lines when quota was reached, but this was removed in June 2022)
 
Multiple lines at the same location and on the same login can be bonded for speed & resilience, the quota is shared between them - see below for more details.
 
==How to Change the monthly quota==
You can regrade through https://www.aa.net.uk/broadband/regrades-moves/ -regrade A change in tariff would take effect from the following calendar month.html
A change in tariff would take effect from the following calendar month.
 
==Topping up before the quota runs out==
If the top up Action is set to Slow or Block, then when you have less than 50GB remaining a Top up button will be shown on the Control Page. Clicking this will add more usage and will invoice for it. From September 6, 2017 topTop-up on Home::1 and SoHo::1 does not expire. It continues until you have used it all.▼

▲If the top up Action is set to Slow or Block, then when you have less than 50GB remaining a Top up button will be shown on the Control Page. Clicking this will add more usage and will invoice for it. From September 6, 2017 top-up on Home::1 and SoHo::1 does not expire. It continues until you have used it all.
 
The top up is paid for by a separate Direct Debit and lasts to the end of the following month, or until used up.
==How to view remaining Quota==
It can be viewed from the [https://control.aa.net.uk/ Control Pages], and also by viewing the front page of the main web aa.net.uk site from your Home::1 line, it will look a little like this:
 
[[File:H1Quota.png|300px|Remaining quota]]
 
The figure on the homepage is a real time counter of the usage, this may differ slightly from the stats on the [https://control.aa.net.uk/ Control Pages] as the control pages uses data that is only updated hourly.
 
The quota figure on the homepage can also be viewed as an svg image using the URL: https://quota.aa.net.uk you can request a json or plain text version too, eg:
<SyntaxHighlight lang=bash>
curl -L https://quota.aa.net.uk --header "Accept: application/json"▼
curl -L https://quota.aa.net.uk --header "Accept: textapplication/plainjson"
wgetcurl -L https://quota.aa.net.uk --header= "Accept: applicationtext/jsonplain" -q -O -
wget https://quota.aa.net.uk --header="Accept: textapplication/plainjson" -q -O -
▲ curl -Lwget https://quota.aa.net.uk --header ="Accept: applicationtext/jsonplain" -q -O -
</SyntaxHighlight>
 
==Usage Tracking==
 
==Quota Warnings==
We can send an email when the quota reaches a certain point. You can edit this on the [https://control.aa.net.uk/ Control Pages]. We'll then also email when the quota runs out. (as of June 2022)

!Block
|This option was removed in June 2022 and lines set to go slow instead.
|You will be redirected to our portal
|
|From our portal you can purchase Top up
|-
!Slow
|The line speed will be capped, the speed depends on the tariff. For 100GB1TB users the slow mode will now be around 330kbit3Mb/s and for 200GB10TB users it will be around 660kbit30Mb/s. The idea is that at that speed you could not use the whole of the coming month's quote even flat out. Usage during this time will come out of next month's quota.
|You can top up from the Control Pages (see above)
|-
!Auto-bill
|When the quota is reached, the system will issue a 50GB250GB top up and will invoice for it. (Mandatory for bonded/multi line services)
|n/a (It's automatic)
