What's my billing cycle?
Most customers will be on a billing cycle from the 1st to the last of the month, however you could be on a billing cycle aligned to any day of the calendar month.
The Recurring Charges section of your invoice will show what your billing cycle is:
Why is my first bill bigger than normal?
Your first bill will likely be a little higher than normal, as this consists of two components:
(a) a partial month charge to align with the end of the month (if applicable), and
(b) the normal monthly charge for your service
The Charge Detail section of your invoice shows how these charges are compiled:
1) Shows the charges that you should expect to see month to month on your invoice. This can also include Hardware Rental and Calling Plans if you have requested them. Note that your subscriptions are billed for one full month in advance.
2) Shows the charges that cover the period from when your subscription went active, until the end of the current billing cycle. You won't see these in subsequent months unless you add another subscription to your account.
3) Shows any one-off type charges that cover items such as purchased hardware, shipping and promotions. You shouldn't expect to see these in subsequent months unless you purchase additional hardware etc.
Your invoice might also show any calling charges that fall outside the calling plan that you are one. These will be charged retrospectively on the following invoice.
When do I receive my first invoice?
Your first invoice will be sent in line with the commencement of the first full month e.g. If you are connected 15th June, you will receive your first invoice early in July. This will cover the period from the 15th June – 30th June, as well as the normal month in advance between 1st July – 31st July.
