The Home::1 has a quota amount per month
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.
▲The Home::1 has a quota amount per month, either 150GB, 250GB, or 350GB. When the quota is reached various things could happen such as the line being blocked, the service set to go slow or for the system to automatically apply a 50GB top up (and charge for it) More details below...
==How to Change the monthly quota==

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 50GB and will invoice for it. From September
The top up is paid for by a separate Direct Debit and lasts to the end of the following month, or until used up.

!Slow
|The line speed will be capped, the speed depends on the tariff. For 100GB users the slow mode will now be around 330kbit/s and for 200GB users it will be around 660kbit/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.

==Quota on Bonded/Multi-line Home::1 Lines==
===Overview===
The Home::1 tariff is usually for a single line, but we do allow multiple lines on a Home::1 tariff which means that traffic can be bonded to increase the throughput (speed) and resilience.
*Multiple lines on Home::1 lines need to be on the same login (e.g. example@a)
*They will all be given a different line number (e.g. example@a.1, example@a.2 etc.).
*Each line needs its own Quota, these can be different amounts. (Previously we had allowed a line to have zero quote, but this has changed)
*Automatic quota balancing will ensure that the total quota is automatically shared as needed
===Balancing===
From a user's perspective, this means that you don't get auto topped-up until you have completely run out of quota across your set of lines. However, there can be confusing states where (e.g.) you have a total of 25GB quota left, shown to you as line 1 having 20GB quota and line 2 having 5GB quota. Don't panic; when the line with 5GB quota runs out of quota completely, balancing will kick in and adjust the situation.
