Remember, AutoPay is only 1 portion of the full renewal process.
Step 1- payment date, last day or current cycle.
When renewal process begins, waiting rewards are converted to available funds, and added to any other funds already available.
Step 2
Query to determine required funds to renew current plan. Total cost minus Available funds, difference is balance due.
Step 3 if amount due is $0 or less, reactive plan as currently selected and end process.
Step 4, Amount due is greater than $0, wait for manual top up payment, prior to reactivating plan. End Process
Step 5, If no payment is received via one time payment from credit or visa debit, or voucher payment, check for AutoPay option approved/not approved. If approved, Charge payment card outstanding balance and apply to payment to activate plan. End process.
Step 6, If Paymemt declined via AutoPay, suspend or expire plan, await top up payment and réactivation of plan manually. End process.
Step 7, If AutoPay not enabled, Expire plan. End Process.
Step 8, Await payment for 90-days suspension period for payment and réactivation.
Step 10, If 90-day suspension period has been completed without réactivation, Expire account, disable SIM, deassociate telephone number, and return number original carrier of phone number to await activation on new calling service. End Process. Renewal process Fully Complete.
I have not included a plan change at time of renewal, so many more steps to add to above.
As you can see, AutoPay *may not* run for a successful renewal, however if Activated, whether or not it’s processed, the reward will be available until plan is expired.
