Yes, my example shows it's a bit of a scam.
I'm on "gigs included" pricing but they also report 95th percentile.
My traffic (and I guess a lot of people's) looks like a 24 hour period rollercoaster rather than fence posts over the day. The 2.63Mbps 95th percentile figure isn't that much smaller than the highest peak for the entire month even though I'm using an average of less than half of that.
