By applying for the Extra Option (option charge ¥2,500 / 2GB and automatically added every 2GB), you can use the service without the above constraint on communications speed.
To avoid network congestion, a limit may be placed on the communication speed for a whole day if the total amount of communication used exceeds 6GB over the three most recent days (not including the day on which the restriction is applied). (The restriction applies regardless of the remaining data amount.)

The actual amount charged is calculated using the tax amount calculated from the total amount of the individual tax-excluded charges, and therefore may differ from the total of the individual tax-included charges. Also, tax-included charges are truncated to whole numbers (excluding calling charges and communication charges).
