It can sometimes be difficult to predict how much you need to add to your account each month due to the varying charges throughout the billing cycle. We hear you and have taken steps to simplify the process.
Starting June 1, 2023, we will be consolidating all recurring monthly fees to be charged on the first day of each month. This means that any product or service that incurs a fixed monthly fee, such as extended call recording storage or DIDs/numbers, will be charged on the first day of each calendar month. We hope this change will make it easier for you to manage your finances and plan your budget accordingly.
As part of this change, we are also adjusting how these products and services are activated. Each will be charged a prorated fee at the time of purchase and then charged its regular monthly fee on the first day of the following calendar month. For example, if you enable the Inbox feature on the 19th of May, you will be charged a prorated amount upon activation and then your regular monthly fee will be charged on the 1st of June.
We are sending this announcement, along with others, to help you prepare for any adjustments you may need to make in your monthly budgeting planning. We understand that finances can be a stressful topic for any business, and we want to alleviate that stress by making this change at your request.
Thank you for your continued support and please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
