This is a question Corporate Idiocy

Comedian Al Murray recounts a run-in with industrial-scale stupidity: "Car insurance company rang, without having sent me a renewal letter, asking for money. Made them answer security questions." In the same vein, tell us your stories about pointless paperwork and corporate quarter-wits

Much like beer,
your internet access is limited by your ability to pay, and your supplier's ability/willingness to supply you (landlords are likely to stop serving you, once you are steaming).
Advertising "unlimited" data, for £x per month, should be treated as fraud, but the ASA (or whichever regulatory body this concerns) don't seem to give a shit.

I agree with you
the way they describe it is dodgy, but all it means is that at no point will they actually cut off your internet access.

Haven't looked, but I'd guess the 'fair use' policy which they all seem to refer to when they call it unlimited, tells you you'll get charged.

The whole business is a bit murky. Connection speeds seem to be subject to the same nebulous rules. Mine is supposed to be 20mbps, I have never seen anything over 10, ever.
