If they really throttle to 24 KBit/s to encourage people changing tariffs, they're idiots. Who the hell will realize that low speed comes from throttling? Most people will blame network quality for that low speed and rather switch providers.

Perhaps... But they have been known to do some weird stuff like the speed restriction that comes on after they decide you are somehow abusing the system. Bottom line is I have never got anything remotely close to the stated speeds anyhow
