=== 2010s: Lower caps and faster speeds === On January 3, 2012, customer advocacy blog Stop The Cap! reported that Bell lowered its [[bandwidth cap]]s in [[Ontario]] and [[Quebec]] by 10 GB for all new activations of its Fibe services, except for the Fibe 25 plan in Ontario which was lowered by 25 GB instead and Fibe 6 and 7 which remain unchanged.{{dubious|date=September 2018}}{{citation needed|date=September 2018}} In May 2012, Bell launched new fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) plans and simplified its slower DSL plans. FTTH regions can now download and upload at symmetric speeds of up to 175 Mbit/s. The previous changes for lower bandwidth caps were reverted for the new Fibe 15/1 and Fibe 25/7 plans. The Fibe 5/1 plan replaced the older Essential, Essential Plus, Fibe 6 and Fibe 7 plans. The bandwidth cap for Fibe 5/1, however, was lowered from 25 GB to 15 GB.{{dubious|25 GB is not a bandwidth|date=April 2020}} The Fibe 50/50 FTTH plan was removed from Bell's website by February 2013. In its place, a Fibe 50/10 FTTN plan was made available for the first time. During that same month, usage caps for the 15/10, 25/10 and 50/10 plans were lowered by 15, 25 and 75 GB respectively.{{dubious|date=April 2020}} February also saw the addition of an unlimited Internet usage add-on for Bell Internet. It costs $30/month and can be added to any residential plan.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bell.ca/Bell_Internet/Promotions/Unlimited-Internet|title=Unlimited Internet β Bell Internet promotion|work=bell.ca}}</ref> Those who subscribe to telephony ([[Bell Mobility]] or Bell Home Phone) and residential television ([[Bell Satellite TV]] or [[Bell Fibe TV]]) from Bell can obtain a $20/month discount on the unlimited Internet usage add-on.
