===== Refund calculation for annual subscriptions: =====
Your refund is prorated for the months you have not used. However, when you cancel the annual subscription, your subscription will be converted to the monthly subscription and you will lose the discounted annual price, so you will be prorated at the monthly rate for the months you have already used.
+
If an annual subscription has a monthly option, upon cancellation of an annual subscription, your subscription will be recalculated as monthly and then the balance is refunded. 
 +
*For example, if a monthly subscription is $5 and the annual plan is $45, and the subscription is cancelled after 6 months, the refund amount would be:
 +
**$45 - ($5 * 6 months) = $15
  
Note: There is no refund for annual ePortfolio subscriptions.
+
*Subscriptions to ePorftolio - Premium and other plans that are offered on an annual basis ONLY and do NOT have a monthly option are non-refundable.
 
 
*Example:
 
** On May 1st, you subscribed annually to ''Classroom Plus''.
 
** On June 1st, you canceled your annual subscription.
 
** Your refund is the annual charge minus the number of month used at the monthly rate.
