View your Tesco Mobile bill

You’ll get a text or email from us each month when your bill is ready, depending on which method you’ve chosen. Although we don’t send paper bills, all our online bills come in a print-friendly format.

Once your bill is produced it will show your tariff charges along with the cost of any usage outside of your allowances.

Your tariff is the cost of your usage and phone. If you’re on our Anytime Upgrade tariff you may have two tariff costs; one for the usage and one for the credit agreement.

Understanding your first bill

When you take out a contract with us, your first month’s payment is taken at the time of your order. We’ll show this payment on your first bill under ‘Payments received’.

Your first bill will show two charges – charges from the date you took out your contract to the day before your bill date, and charges in advance from your bill date to the day before your next bill date. If you’ve brought your number with you, these charges may show against the number you were given when you joined us.

You’ll pay the amount that’s shown next to ‘Amount due’. Just under this, you’ll see the date we’ll take your payment from your chosen payment method.

To make sure you get the full benefit of your first month’s allowances, we’ll automatically roll over anything that’s left at the end of your first month with us, so you can use this in your second month.

Your final bill

This is the last bill you’ll get from us and includes all costs right up until your last day with us. If you decide to leave Tesco Mobile before your contract ends, you’ll also have to pay an early termination charge, which is shown on your final bill. If you’re an Anytime Upgrade Flex customer and decide to leave Tesco Mobile before your phone contract ends, in addition to the usage for the month that you’re in, you will need to pay the following in relation to your phone credit agreement:

Any usage you make during the 30-day notice period will be included in your final bill. If you go over your allowances during this time, you’ll be charged standard rates.

Please don’t cancel your Direct Debit until the final bill has been paid. If your account is in credit, we’ll use those details to refund you.
