Sim card bought in 30th of the month, invoiced with one full month amount

Besucher:in

Hi, 

I've bought my first sim card in Deutschland, last Saturday, from Media Markt, a pay as you go sim. It was 29th of November. Two or three days later, I've received the 1st invoice for period 29-30 November, in amount of a full month, actually with some extra charge, as the standard rate. It's that normal here, to be charged a full month wenn you just bought and use the sim for only 2 day of that month?

Thanks for answers.

Are you sure it's a prepaid card and not a contract plan?

    Hi. Thanks for your answer. 

    You're right, it is a sim only monthly contract ( so can be anytime cancelled), not a 24 months contract. 

     But still, not fair to be charged for a full month, when you jusy buy the sim and start the contract on the day before the last day of month.

    Good morning ​@CostaD77 😊

    We're delighted that you found your way here and are asking us your question. Welcome to our community.

    I just checked your customer account for the first invoice you mentioned. Did you take a closer look at page 2? There you can see that no full monthly amount and no extra charges were billed. Are you perhaps referring to a different invoice that you looked at?
