I'm integrating service with cheddargetter.
I've few plans: montly and 3 months, all have 1 month or free trial.
When I change plan via PHP providing just new plan:

     $data = array(
          'subscription' => array(
          'planCode' => 'MY NEW PLAN',
         )
     );

then user is immediately charged.

on new plan I've:
bill immediately for a prorated amount and start new billing period

but it doesn't respect free trial period, is that possible to switch between such plans but still respect 1 month of trial?

   Hi Andy -- By default, when switching from a free plan to a paid plan, the behavior is as if the customer signed up for the paid plan to start with.

   You can override the next bill date with the changeBillDate field:

   In other words, you can match the current trial period by setting that date according to your trial.
