limit to bill prepayments?

Hello, I was just wondering if it’s possible to pay my bills months in advance, in case I don’t have the money in the future? I’m talking like a whole year maybe, but I mainly just want to know the limits. Also will that alter my plan at all? Apologies if it’s a dumb question, but I’m unsure if I’ll have the money I currently have far into the future so I just want to ask :’) Thank you for any support!

Good Day.

This is somewhat of an unusual question that you are asking. I will do my best to answer it for you.

As a starting point, are you on a Bell Mobility monthly or a prepaid plan? 

To the best of my knowledge, there is no restriction that I am aware of that would stop you from making advance payments towards your Bell Mobility account. Any payments that you do make, would be applied & credited to your account balance each month.

If you are on a prepaid plan & you do not wish to continue your prepaid service, please be aware that any balance remaining on the account at deactivation will be lost and non-refundable.

If you are on a monthly plan & you choose to cancel your service, after deactivation, a final bill will be generated on your regular billing date. Some charges (e.g., international roaming) may take longer to generate and may need to be billed separately at a later date. All charges will be billed within 90 days of your cancellation date.

  • If your service is cancelled (by you or by Bell) in the middle of a billing period, you will receive a prorated refund for monthly fees billed at the beginning of the billing period that apply to the period after cancellation of your services.
  • Your usage will be prorated based on the length of time remaining in your billing period at the time of cancellation. Additional usage charges incurred on any services that you use in addition to the prorated usage included in your monthly plan will be billed as overage.
  • If your service is subject to a commitment period and you cancel it before the end date, a cancellation fee will apply. For details, please refer to the Bell Mobility Terms of Service.

Should you require further clarification, do not hesitate to contact Bell Customer Service Billing and & accounts at:  1 866 310-BELL (2355) or dial *611 from any Bell mobile device.

Thank you for posting your question.

Take care.
