You have made the situation worse by changing your billing date as you will likely be charged for your new tariff upto your new billing date and then your tariff for the month ahead.&nbsp;</P> <P>There is no account access on these forums and therefore is suggest you speak to EE on 150 rather than using live chat.&nbsp;</P> <P>Thanks&nbsp;</P> Thu, 26 Oct 2023 11:30:32 GMT https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Contracts-Billing/Extra-charges-out-of-nowhere/m-p/1319560#M78986 Northerner 2023-10-26T11:30:32Z
