Ethical question

If I only needed the full upload/download speed of the Xtreme Turbo package for one day out of every week, would it be ethical to upgrade for those four days out of the month and then downgrade the following day back to my original speed? And more importantly, do you think WOW would allow it?

Unlikely IMO

If you like extra fees, or confusion on your bill.

Yeah, you can do that if you want. But you will see a strange bill.

How's that? Do you just mean it'd be a little higher than what I regularly get or do a whole slew of fees come with it?

It'll be slightly higher. There'd be a proration for the upgrade time and then for the rest of the normal month. It'll just look ugly on paper.

And you could probably get away with doing that for a couple months, but I doubt WOW is going to let you do that indefinitely. Plus, a lot of hassle for just saving $5-10/month.

That would be a ton of paper work and probably flag something on the account.

I doubt the turn around time would be predictable as well.

And don't expect the great deals that many get when they call yearly.
