Study.com Membership Pause Question

[Merlin]

If I pause my Study.com membership, is it possible to come back before the time I set is up if I end up finishing my other classes faster than expected? E.g. if I pause for three months and then want to come back two months from now, would I be able to?

Also, if I pause my membership, do I lose the days remaining on my current month or do they just start the timer on those last few days when my membership is unpaused? To be specific, my first month doesn't end until the 9th (new billing month starts on the 10th), so should I wait until the 9th to pause it and try to knock out as many quizzes as possible before then to not "waste" membership days, or should I pause now and use the extra days later on?

Edit: Apparently pausing only starts and stops on the billing date. But that means the "pause" feature is nonsense since it doesn't really add any value. You can always just cancel and restart your subscription manually instead of using the "pause" feature and get the same net result. That wouldn't take effect until the billing date either.
