Just had an email from someone asking if they can set up in their home country and bring it to the DR afterwards. In case anyone else is thinking that this is specifically for the DR. you should know that can not only set up in the your home country, but you can actually replace your cable with it in at home and save yourself a couple thousand a year. It isn't just a service for the DR. It works anywhere that there's good internet

I have a house in Sosua, and would like to enroll in your service. I would like to speak to you first, as I am 80 yrs old, and may need you to walk me through it. I am in NJ, and will be in Sosua from Oct. 26 - Nov. 2., but would need to speak to you before I leave. I have a firestick.

That's also the reason why Claro had been cancelling subscriber lines that consume lots of data per month, and they have been doing it for over 1 year now.
Any proof of that? There is some fine print in their contract about that, but what is exactly 'lots of data per month' and for what subscriber? My Claro service is TV/Phone line/200 Mbit download 50 Mbit upload internet on Fiber Optics, so how much data I have to upload/download daily to have my Claro subscription cancelled, according to you?

My question was addressed to another member who wrote that Claro is cancelling subscriptions for excessive traffic usage, I wanted to know where this info is coming from and if it's true, some details please... because without proof it's just BS.

Generally it is directed to so called Wiferos, the new business that appeared in DR about 10 years ago where because claro priced their 100Mbps plan at price that is less than what it cost to receive this bandwidth from USA, i guess they did it counting that people will get this plan for themselves but "business thinking" people started sharing it with their neighbors and then with their neighborhoods they figured it out that it can be business... and it grew like crazy, almost like goldrush :-D then about 2 years ago claro cut this out by enforcing data cap on consumer lines. Basically it's part of Fair Use policy https://www.claro.com.do/personas/legal-y-regulatorio/#

and i quote:

Uso Excesivo del Servicio de Internet


A los fines de que CLARO pueda mantener un servicio de calidad, Usted reconoce que el servicio de internet fijo contratado, con planes correspondientes al segmento masivo (Residencias y Negocios Pymes), no podrá exceder los 2,000 gigabytes por mes. En caso de que el servicio exceda ese volumen, CLARO podrá en cualquier momento y sin previo aviso, tomar las siguientes medidas correctivas: 1) suspenderle la capacidad de ancho de banda excesivo, 2) suspenderle el acceso al servicio, 3) requerirle pagar cargos adicionales, de acuerdo a los precios vigentes de CLARO por uso excesivo, 4) suspender o cancelar su cuenta.



basically they are saying they will throttle down your contract when you exceed 2TB of data per month and if you continue to do so they may cancel your contract.


general consumer that has this internet for themselves will be fine, to reach this limit you need to be using 10Mbps non stop 24/7, which is normal consumer never does.

Cheers,
Delancerguy

P.S. every ISP has this kind of policy, just data cap is different
