It's more akin to a gym membership. You can sign up to a gym promising you 24/7/365 access, but if you and a couple buddies decide to walk 1mph on the treadmill to work on your laptops from dusk til dawn, preventing anyone else from using them, you'll be asked to leave.

In either case (gym or GCP) you'll be entitled to a refund for the difference. They aren't allowed to just kick you out and pocket the difference.
