I had a long post written out but it broke the 2000 character limit. Here is the TLDR version. TLDR: Siteground hosting detail and sign up pages look like monthly renewals are possible. When it comes time to renew hosting, you can't do anything less than a yearly renewal without talking to a live chat agent.

Even then, without pushing back, you are required to do yearly renewals.

Here is the hosting detail page, the account sign up page, and the ToS page.
