Ported my number over and was all activated 27/5. I'm on £20 p/m 160gb sim only. Can someone say why I've already had a £20 bill go out today after only a week? I work 12hr shifts and can't get into my EE store till Monday. Thanks for any help. <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":thumbs_up:">👍</span></P> Sat, 04 Jun 2022 10:16:34 GMT https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Contracts-Billing/Early-bill/m-p/1144552#M58646 snakey1975 2022-06-04T10:16:34Z https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Contracts-Billing/Early-bill/m-p/1144554#M58647 <P><a href="https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2809490">@snakey1975</a>&nbsp; because you pay pro rata not in arrears.&nbsp;</P> Sat, 04 Jun 2022 10:24:24 GMT https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Contracts-Billing/Early-bill/m-p/1144554#M58647 Chris_B 2022-06-04T10:24:24Z https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Contracts-Billing/Early-bill/m-p/1144561#M58648 <P>You pay your bills <U><STRONG>a month in advance</STRONG></U> plus for the 1st bill for the few days between when you joined &amp; when the 1st bill is raised.
