### **PhoneBox Monthly and Prepaid Plan Comparison**

1. Monthly Plans

Monthly plans follow a fixed billing cycle, running from the 2nd of each month to the 1st of the following month.

* Monthly plans offer greater flexibility — you may cancel your plan at any time, and unused service periods may be eligible for a refund,
* You can apply for a Vacation Plan if traveling long-term (minimum 1 month, maximum 3 months) 
* You can continue using data even after reaching your limit. Data overage is charged at $15 + tax per 1GB
* You will receive a monthly invoice for your payments

Monthly Plans are recommended for customers who:
* Plan to stay in Canada for **more than 3 months**
* Appreciate having the option to **pause or adjust their service** depending on their situation
* Want the flexibility to use data beyond their plan limit


2. Prepaid Plans
A prepaid plan has no fixed billing cycle. You can activate it at any time, and it remains active for 30 days. After the 30-day period ends, you must manually extend the plan to continue using the services. — or you can enable Auto-Renewal to have your plan extended automatically each term.

* Data will be blocked once you reach your data limit
* Additional data is available anytime 
* Vacation Plans are not available for prepaid accounts

Prepaid Plans are recommended for customers who:
* Plan to stay in Canada for less than 3 months
* Want to avoid any additional data usage or overage charges
