According to WGME, Governor Janet Mills has signed into law a bill, originally proposed by Democratic Rep. Seth Berry, of Bowdoinham, that requires cable companies to pro-rate people who disconnect service in the middle of a billing cycle.

The bill was proposed after a change in one company's billing practices left thousands of customers on the hook for charges.

The law goes into effect on June 16th.
