I just got starlink and wasn’t sure how fast it burn through the data, so I started at 100 GB and quick realized I need more and switch to 300. At the time the upgrade due make sense as the total is less than 300 but today I was curious what if I need even more, and the app show upgrading to unlimited I need 131 more which added up is more than 175 which does not make sense.

The only reason I can think of is the prorated base plan is calculated in the 23.3 first upgrade charge than the actual plan

Here is a precise numbers and timeline:

Aug 9: Activated Starlink Mini around 10–11 PM Pacific.
Billing cycle: Aug 10 – Sep 10.
Aug 10: Roam 100GB ($55). Invoice: $55, service period Aug 10 – Sep 10.
Aug 11: Upgraded 100GB → 300GB ($80). Invoice: $23.30, service period Aug 11 – Sep 10.
Total paid so far: $78.30.
Aug 13 ~2 PM: Checked 300GB → Unlimited ($175) using “Change Now.”
Upgrade screen shows $131.58 prorated / $131.58 due now.
Next billing cycle would be $175.
If upgraded now, total charges for this cycle would be $209.88 ($55 + $23.30 + $131.58).

Background:

I am totally new to Airstream and just aquried a 2025 Bambi 20FB. Now i am facing a problem of sewage storage, i can eitehr store 10ft of tube plus clear elbow and caps inside the carrying tube. Or 20ft hose only and need to put the elbow elsewhere.

The dealer told me that the rear storage compartment is connected to internal airspace so no smelly stuff and i plan to store cables there only.

So my real question is

1. Do i just carry a 10ft hose + parts then call it a day
2. Carry 20ft and found a solution to store the rest, then how do you store it?
3. And hose holder? I heard some place require you to have them so hose not touching ground, where shoudl you store them?
