Hi @James1182 its usually 3 days after sim activation or up to 13 days if paying direct debit. From my experience the bill is generated a week or so after activation/receipt of device then payment is taken just after that.

Is this an additional sim on your mobile account @James1182 as if it is it will be on the same billing date.

Then as far as I know @James1182 it will be on the same billing date as your sim bill. All my devices and sims are on the same billing date (they have been added at different times over the years).
