How do you use up 90Gb/mth legally (I'm actually quite curious about
this, not doubting that you're being legal !) ?
And why do you think such heavy usage should be provided to you at the
same price as a light user ?

Check your T&Cs, running websites is probably not allowed. Anyway, running
websites on a 256k upstream pipe seems a bit silly. Surely a Bytemark VM
or similar would be a better option ?
