Charge for being over the data usage threshold

It seems like users are paying for the 1229 Gig of data per month. Why they are charged for being just over by a couple of Gigabyte of data and did not got any credit/refund for not using the total of 1229gig of data on the other month? This is frustrated and not fair for the consumers.

Hello, @user_pri5m9

 

Customers exceeding this amount of data in one calendar month will be notified by email, text message and X1 notifications (if opted in). Plus, once every 12 months, customers will also receive a courtesy month of usage overage charges. You will see the overage charge on the next billing statement. However, you'll also see a courtesy credit for the charges.

I'm well aware of the one month courtesy that being over the limit. I'm taking about being charged $10 after just 1 GB over the monthly 1229 GB limit. How about the other months that I have hundreds of gigabytes of data that left unused? Why didn't Xfinity roll over those data or credit/refund? Why it is only go one way?
