Actually based on your posts, what you _really_ need is more data. I think mimmo_L was suggesting ways to get that additional data you need for the next 6 days. No matter what solution the mods come up with for your US Add-On (refund, credit, or sorry no refunds; I am not a Mod and make no claims), you will still need to get more data.
You said you need another 500MB for the next 6 days. The first 2 solutions below are pretty straightforward. The 3rd is not.
You could buy multiple 200MB Data Add-Ons for $10 each. This would be a _very_ bad investment if you truly need 500MB, as it would cost you $30.
You could buy a 1GB Data Add-On for $30. It never expires, so if you only use 500MB you will have 500MB in reserve in case you ever have a busy month in future.
The less obvious thing (which might make sense if you're near end of billing cycle) to which mimmo_L was alluding would be to change plans with immediate effect (I think it has to be to a new plan to do it self-serve). Then as soon as it's effective, book another plan change (perhaps back to your $40/4.5GB) and make it effective "next billing date". Most likely you'd want to change to the $45 plan now, then book a change to the $40 plan for future effect. Or stay on the $45 or even $50 plan, if that suits you better. Yes you're throwing away the rest of the current billing cycle if you do this, but it may be worth it (you have to do the numbers). A few months ago, I did change from $30 to $40 plan with a week left to go on the billing month, I had burned through my 500MB and was tapping my Add-On. I could see that adding another Add-On would cost more than just changing to $40 plan immediately and losing a week of the $30 plan. I made the change while sitting in my car waiting for someone. Love Public Mobile for that! Of course in my case I stayed with the $40 plan because 500MB wasn't enough.
@Note that the current bonus plans cannot be ordered after Monday Oct 15 @ 1159pm EDT. That's why we're suggesting you book the future change right away (none of us knows if there will be other good plans after Monday). This is also an opportunity to think if you want to move to the $45 (6GB) or $50 (8GB+Canada-US calling) ongoing, in which case change to one of those, and stay on it.
Sorry for the long post, but ultimately based on your posts, your need for more data is separate from the disposition of your US Roaming Add-On. (My guess is they'll credit that purchase back to your account, though I'm not a Mod so it really is a guess).
