This is not a new policy change -- it's been our pricing for all new users since 2017. (The news is that we're now applying this pricing to Stripe's older users, in part as a response to some price increases that the card networks are making.)

Reminds me when my Charter/Spectrum told me that even though I cancelled my service 2 days into the billing period, that I paid for a fixed term of service per billing period and they would not give me a prorated refund.
Escalating up the chain I got to the supervisor who told me that it was always their policy but they were just now enforcing it.
