Y muchos otras restricciones (que son lógicas). Algunas veces hacen la analogía con los letreros de "come todo lo que quieras por $ xxx.00", sólo que en este caso casi siempre existen restricciones, pues en internet los glotones de ancho de banda pueden consumir mucho más que lo que podrían comer una banda de gigantes en un restaurant.

Sorry... 2MHost Inc. can not allow its customers to operate Bulletin Boards. These applications simply consume too much bandwidth. In order to allow the operation of Bulletin Boards, we would have to charge a lot more. Instead, 2MHost Inc. takes pride in providing its clients with inexpensive, high-quality hosting.

UNLIMITED USE POLICY
High bandwidth usage: 2MHost Inc. offers an unlimited use policy by maintaining very high bandwidth-to-customer ratios. In rare cases, 2MHost Inc. may determine that a customer is using server resources to such an extent that he or she may jeopardize server performance and resources for other customers. In such instances, 2MHost Inc. reserves the right to invoke the High Resource User Policy.
You may run any CGI or non-CGI scripts you desire. However, we reserve the right to disable any script that dramatically affects server performance.
We are proud to offer our clients non-restricted data transfer. This is defined as any transfer of data in the form of text or graphics, directly readable by a web browser. Our intention is to provide a large storage space to serve web documents, not an off-site storage area for electronic files. All image files (.GIF, .JPEG, .BMP, etc.) stored in an account on our servers must be 'linked' to web pages (.htm, .html) which reside within the same account. Accounts containing numerous or large (over 500Kb)(!) unlinked files are subject to warning, suspension or cancellation at the discretion of 2MHost Inc.'s administration.
Please note that over 85% of our clients never exceed even 2000 megs of total FTP and web page transfer combined (Nunca lo han hecho, por que la transferencia tope REAL es 2.5GB...jejeje) , so you can be assured that our bandwidth is not choked by numerous 'load-heavy' sites (Léase: cualquier sitio exitoso, dentro de lo normal, por cierto). To further protect the integrity of our service, any individual site consistently using 10% or more of the system's resources may be issued a warning or have its account deactivated.
HIGH RESOURCE USER POLICY
Resources are defined as bandwidth and/or processor utilization. 2MHost Inc. may implement the following policy at its sole discretion:
When a web site is found to be monopolizing the resources available, 2MHost Inc. reserves the right to suspend that site immediately. This policy is implemented only in extreme circumstances and is intended to prevent the misuse of our servers.
CANCELLATION AND REFUNDS
2MHost Inc. reserves the right to cancel the service at any time. Customer refund requests are to be sent to [email protected] and will only be processed in the cases of service non-performance where 2MHost Inc. is clearly at fault Lo cual significa prácticamente nunca, es decir, si te suspenden la cuenta sin aviso y sin razón válida, y no hubo caída del servidor (que por otro lado tienes que probar que fué su culpa y no de su proveedor, o de x motivo que aleguen) no te regresan nada. Punto.. Refund requests for problems beyond 2MHost Inc.'s control will be refused.
