It sounds like they did turn the system off for paying customers though, why would it be any worse to do a scream test a few days before they pulled the rug out?
If it's just a matter of billing cycles (does everyone's billing cycle end on the same day?) , it seems like they could've handled it better. Just give impacted users a prorated and shortened final month (or even given it out for free for goodwill)
