Each billing period is 30 days. You pay for the month you're about to have, so if you give a 15+ day notice, the remaining time of that month remains. If I were to let them know 17 days ahead, I would have 17 days left on that month.

Yes, I will have to pay this billing period.

I'm communicating with them over email to see if possibly they can give me a quote of a server that we can order. Today I just paid for the next month so I'm either going to waste a lot of money and move soon or wait when leaseweb has something to offer.

Why don't you get a 6 core server with somewhere around 10 gigs of ram?? you would never have to replace it.... when i say never i mean not any time soon and im sure it wouldn't cost more then the quad core? but the 6 core machines seem to run sooo much better

Yo man! And then brag on random forums how awesome your rig is.
You can even play stuff on youtube when running that server then, 6 cores for life. And man, all that redundant RAM, who cares what it's good for... it's freaking 10 gigs of RAM!
Hell, get 12 gigs, that's even more than 10!

It's not necessary to really add additional cores because 1.12 and 2.4.3 cores never had multi-threading support so already we BARELY take advantage of our quad-core. It's probably more important to get better processing Ghz per core, which is what I was looking into.
