Continuing the discussion from [Discourse Subscriptions](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-subscriptions/140818):

Let’s say I have a recurring annual subscription of £100, which runs from 21 Jan 2022 to 20 Jan 2023, but want to change this to £110 when it renews. I know from [Subscriptions: Change User's Plan - #2 by pfaffman](https://meta.discourse.org/t/subscriptions-change-users-plan/221927/2) that the answer is to cancel the current subscription and have use user resubscribe to the same product on a new plan. I can see the “x cancel” button on the `/admin/plugins/discourse-subscriptions/subscriptions` page.

I haven’t thought it through completely, but have some questions about this scenario:

1. What happens when I cancel the current subscription? I think that ends the subscription straight away and there is the option to refund the last payment in its entirety. That’s not what is needed.

2. Is there any way to keep the subscription going until its renewal date, and just cancel the auto-renewal?

3. Is the answer to diarise the renewal date for every subscriber and cancel the subscription the day before.

I guess in any case I would need personally to remind the subscriber about the cancellation and ask that renewal on the new plan be considered.
