For cancellations related to annual subscriptions, there is a 4 month window where refunds can be processed.

This would be the case for new accounts and annual renewals. Any discounts afforded for maintaining annual plans would be forfeited and the full monthly amount would be deducted from any refunds being considered.
When a number or number(s) are Ported to Another Carrier and an account is to be closed, following such transfers, a $100 fee will be deducted for every number being ported.
