The new bug requires more attention than the Future Dated Plan bugs.
Why? Because there is a simple workaround:
1. 2 days before expiry make a 1 time payment equal to the new plan cost less any available funds
2. day before expiry click Change Plan, pick the new plan, click activate now, log out
That's all it takes; wel plus publishing the procedure. Customer loses 1 day of pre-paid service for a no glitch change; Public Mobile gets to concentrate on the new bug. Rewards aren't available but will carry over (I think).
