Almost all ISPs in the UK have usage caps. My provider, for example, caps at 60GB/month for the account that I have. That's more than enough for me - even with downloading quite a lot of stuff from BBC iPlayer, my usage is typically around 30GB/month.
(As a matter of interest, when my ISP introduced usage caps, they said that their reason for doing so was that under 0.1% of their customers were using 70% of their total network capacity, and that capacity has to be paid for. It's not fair for a tiny proportion of users to degrade performance for everyone.)
