Switching to a cheaper plan mid-cycle?

What happens if I switch to a cheaper plan mid-cycle, am I credited the difference in cost?

No you will forfeit the remainder of that plan and need to pay the full price of your new plan

So the best option would be to switch plans next cycle?

Yup, switch on next cycle. You can do it automatically if on autopay, just choose "start on next renewal".

@Poogzley it's considered impolite to choose your own reply thanking @ShawnC13 and @Luddite as the solution. No offense, but your thanking them isn't the solution. You should really choose one or the other (if they've given you equally good advice, I'd suggest the one that replied earliest in general) as the solution.

Oops sorry about that, I didn't do it on purpose. ~~How can I change it?~~

---Update---

I figured it out! Thank you @srlawren for bringing this to my attention.

You can choose to switch to a cheaper plan mid-cycle, meaning you will relinquish whatever you prepaid for on your old plan, or you can future-date your plan change so that it changes at your next renewal date.
