Every plan over 5 years

Cumulative cost of use by the end of each year if you keep renewing the same term. First term at the intro price, later terms at the renewal price. A prepaid term is spread over the months it covers, so a long term is never charged twice inside the 5 years. Long terms are still billed up front.
