Billing? ID -> balance. “Very” important data for hackers. They had more? Like card numbers, names, addresses, etc? That’s a bad practice for VPN providers.
You are surprised that a for-profit company that bills people on a RECURRING basis for a paid service keeps card numbers and billing addresses/names? How would recurring bills be paid if the info isn’t stored?
Mulvad gives you a 16 digit random number when you sign up. Anyone with that number can use that account, it’s on you to not lose it, if you do you have to make a new account. You send them money and an account number and they add balance to that account. When it’s out, that account is blocked from service until they get more money. You hack their service and you get a list of numbers and whether or not they have service. They keep no documentation and if you pay with card you have to manually input every time. I know them better than they know their users.
Same reason as any other online company?
So for selling it to aggregators? That’s bad practice for a VPN-providing company.
You really think thats the primary function for user data? Not like, billing?

I’m not surprised. I am accustomed to the shit around.
Just go to the bank (or open your bank application on the phone) and pay.
How do they send you your invoice? Password resets?

The customer can notify ID during payment.
I’m not sure what you mean by that…
