T-Mobile First Bill Question.

Hi,

I'm considering signing up to T-Mobile through their website, just wondered how long after signing up do you have to make your first payment?

Cheers.

It depends... on which plan/handset you choose, if you choose one with a free handset its normally 14 days after you collect your handset and activate your account.

I'm looking at the Flext 50 plus Web and Walk on a free Nokia N95.

So it'd be 14 days after signing up?

Roughly but they may only give you a fraction of the allowance for the first month so i'd watch out.

If you open your account today, then your billing cycle will be either today or tomorrow, you may, for one day have only a pro rata allowance, ie flext 35 - £180 allowance, divided down to an amount for each day, eg 180/30days = £6 allowance and £1.16 pro rata charge for the price plan.

Your billing date is the date your bill is printed and allowance reset. Your payment date will always be 14 days after that date, so if your billing cycle was 1st of each month your payment would be due 15th (on or abouts taking into consideration bank hols weekends)

Another hint, when you get your phone it takes 24 hrs for your allowance info to show on the 150 service, however you still have full access to this allowance but wont be albe to check.

TMobile are currently testing bill/allowance info via sms (of which im in the pilot scheme, its great!) so theres better than sitting through 150!

Hope this helps!

And you can also have your billing date changed too, so if you get paid on a certain day and you want your direct debit to come out to coincide with that then call up customer service and we can arrange most dates.
