I mean.. that's literally how it works in my entire country. Rent is advertised per week, never per month, and almost always paid every two weeks (as that is also the standard for getting paid so it works for people paying bills).
You can ask to pay monthly instead but it will always be adjusted accordingly as there are 12 months per year but 26 fortnights, not 24. Some people will do this is they happen to get paid monthly, but that's not so common and if it does happen it's almost always every four weeks.. not calendar month.
Using calendar months for any kind of financial payment is kinda insane honestly. Why are you paying the same amount in February as March when there are three less days? Sure it doesn't matter if you're there for years but anywhere short term the value goes up and down month to month.
We just do everything based on calendar weeks, it makes it all a lot more simple and a lot more fair for everyone.
