What does a member need to pay when unfreezing their account?

• A. A flat fee regardless of duration
• B. A pro-rated amount until the next billing cycle
• C. No payment is required
• D. The total amount for the next billing cycle

Answer: (B)

The choice indicating that a member needs to pay a pro-rated amount until the next billing cycle is correct because this approach allows for a fair calculation of fees based on the actual duration of service provided. When an account is unfrozen, the service can be reactivated for the remainder of the billing cycle. Instead of charging a flat fee or requiring the total amount for an upcoming billing cycle, the pro-rated amount reflects the time remaining, ensuring that the member only pays for the days they have access to the service. This practice is often seen as equitable and aligns with standard billing procedures in subscription-based services.
