   Anyone here using Bell internet and have experience with     
   downgrading from their unlimited plan at $100/mo to $85/mo for     
   100GB?   
      
   I have a friend who is with the service and I've been tasked to     
   make adjustments to save them money with the service where I     
   can. Recently, we started one billing period at the unlimited     
   for $100/mo plan. Then, about 15 days in, I noticed that my     
   friend only used barely 20GB.  So.. I switched the plan to the     
   100GB for $85/mo.   
      
   According to Bell, they claim to make prorated adjustments.   
      
   Bell, in their seemingly wise wisdom, managed to charge MORE     
   than we expected.  Infact, their total calculation came to     
   $103.50!   
      
   Here's how..   
      
   From Sept 17 to Sep 23:   
      
   [o] internet unlimited, $100,   7 days,   Amount 23.33   
   [o] internet 100GB,      $85CR, 7 days,   Amount 19.83CR   
      
   Total Partial and Other Charges & Credits:        3.50   
      
   Total Internet Charges                          103.50   
      
      
   How does that even work?   
      
   To me... a more honest calculation to benefit the user would     
   be:   
      
   $100, 16 days used, .: prorate for 16 days, .: (16/30)100 = $53.33   
    $85, 14 days remaining, .: prorate for 14 days, .: (14/30)85 = $39.67   
      
   .: total monthly = 53.33 + 39.67 = 93.00
