Fiber internet, also known as fiber optic internet, is a type of internet connection that uses fiber optic cables to transmit data. These cables are made up of tiny strands of glass or plastic that transmit information as pulses of light. Fiber internet provides faster internet speeds and greater bandwidth than traditional copper-based internet connections such as DSL or cable internet. With fiber internet, users can enjoy faster download and upload speeds, smoother streaming, and better online gaming experiences. Additionally, fiber internet is less prone to interference and signal degradation, making it more reliable than other types of internet connections.  

The speed of your Ashnet connection will depend on the plan you choose. Ashnet offers three plans, which you can check on their home page.

Pro-rata billing is a method used by AshNet to charge customers for services based on the actual usage period rather than a full billing cycle. This is particularly useful in scenarios where customers start or end their service mid-cycle. Here’s how it works:

Partial Month Charges:

• When a customer signs up for a service or upgrades their plan mid-month, they are only billed for the days they use the service within that month, not the entire month.

Calculation:

• The monthly fee is divided by the number of days in the billing cycle (usually 30 or 31).
• This daily rate is then multiplied by the number of days the service was active during that billing period.

Example:

• If a customer subscribes to a service costing $30 per month on the 15th of a 30-day month, they will be billed for 16 days (from the 15th to the 30th).
• Daily rate = $30 / 30 days = $1 per day.
• Pro-rata charge = $1 * 16 days = $16.

Benefits:

• Fair Billing: Customers are only charged for what they use, making the billing process fair and transparent.
• Flexibility: Allows customers to upgrade their service without worrying about paying for an entire month they didn't fully use.

Invoicing:

• Pro-rata charges are typically reflected on the next billing statement.
• Invoices will show the breakdown of charges, including any full month charges and the pro-rata charges for partial months.

Application:

• This billing method is commonly applied to subscription services, cloud services, software licenses, and any other services billed on a recurring basis.

Visual Example:

Assume a service costs $30 per month, and the billing cycle starts on the 1st of each month.

• Customer A signs up on the 10th:
• Daily rate: $30 / 30 days = $1 per day
• Usage for the first month: 21 days (from 10th to 30th)
• Pro-rata charge for the first month: $1 * 21 days = $21

By using pro-rata billing, AshNet ensures customers are charged fairly and transparently based on their actual usage of services.
