Billing and Usage 

NeX Mobile customers can view their bills by logging into their NeX Mobile customer area. They will also receive their bill via email on monthly basis. Customers can also request a copy of their bill via chat or an email.

Paper bills can be sent to you upon a request via chat or emailing us at hello@nexmobile.co.uk

Bills can be paid through direct debit as per contract terms.

You can check your usage by logging into your NeX Mobile account or contacting customer services via chat or emailing us at hello@nexmobile.co.uk

Once you have reached the bill limit, the service will stop working, so normally you will not go over the price plan, unless you have purchased additional out of bundle services.

You will be subject to penalty charges of £10 for a one-time delay.

Extra charges may occur only when a customer has out of bundle usage such as calling 0871/0845 and other premium numbers or Premium SMS which is outside the FREE landline calls and local SMS included within your plan. All the Nex Mobile plans have a default bill limit of £20 outside of the standard monthly recurring charge. With prior approval this limit can be changed to £5 or £30. An increase in bill limit can require a deposit. The limit can be crossed if you are on a continuous out of bundle call. The customer is not charged any further, as upon reaching bill limit, all outbound services shall stop working apart from incoming calls.

All minutes/texts/data for the current month will be expire by the end of month. The only exception to this, are any additional out of bundle purchases.

The Cancellation Fee will be charged when you cancel your subscription before the end of your contract or minimum term. The amount payable depends on the time left to run until the end of your contract: you will be billed the monthly charge for your chosen plan for each remaining month.

For example, if you cancel your subscription on 15th August 2020 and your contract ends on 5th October 2020, the Cancellation Fee will be your monthly recurring charge x 2. This is because you will have already paid for August in advance in your previous bill, but you will still have to pay for September and October (the last month’s monthly charges is not pro-rated, so regardless of the date your contract ends, you pay for the last month in full).

You can cancel your services with a written notice sent to our customer services on
hello@nexmobile.co.uk within 14 days from activation. This notice must come from
your registered email address. Any usage within 14 days will be chargeable.

If there is a technical fault of our network that means you can’t use all our services for 3 days in a row, we’ll credit you for the line rental charge for the period the service was not available.

We will not be legally responsible to you for any loss or damage that is not directly caused by us or which we could not reasonably expect at the time we entered into this agreement with you.

When you placed your order for a NeX Mobile SIM, you have paid one monthly fee in advance. This monthly fee is credited in your first recurring bill.

You will also have a pro-rated charge for your first month, from the date you activate your SIM. Your first month calls, texts, and data allowance (where applicable) are pro-rated in the same way.

This means you receive and pay for a proportion of the full monthly allowance. For example, if you order a NeX Mobile SIM on the 1st of the month, but do not activate it until the 15th, you will receive and only pay for half the full monthly call, text, and data allowance (where applicable) in your first month. Any additional use will be out-of-bundle and charged accordingly. You can always check how much allowance you have on your NeX Mobile Account.

Your NeX Mobile bill includes your details with registered address, Monthly Plans charges and Excess Usage on out of bundle services.

If a customer fails to pay their bill or there is a failed direct debit, in that case all customer services will be suspended. Customers will receive an email/SMS with a payment link to make a payment within 24 hours and if the customer fails to pay within this timeframe, Nex Mobile will attempt a second direct debit which will include a £10 admin charge for each reattempt. After the third failed attempt, the account will be terminated with a final bill being issued including any early termination charges. Once the account is terminated, if customer is willing to reconnect, reconnecting charges will apply.  

Normal calls start with 02, 03 and 01 series. Whereas, Premium numbers and Non-Geo numbers, Radio Paging etc have the following prefixes 09, 070, 088, 0870,076, these are numbers which do not form part of the normal services with any Mobile Networks.

Premium numbers normally start with '09..' or Mobile numbers with '070' and Radio Paging.

The following are the typical series.

 

Call Forwarding Services (i.e. 07744/07755) Non-Geo Access Charge (084 & 087)* Premium Call Access Charge (09)*

Directory Enquiries Access Charge (118)* Radio Paging Services (i.e. 076)

Personal Numbering Services (i.e. 070)

*Other than the Access Charge, which is limited to the bill limit, there is also a provider’s Service Charge which is variable, dependent on the service and can go above the bill limit.

Invoices are normally issued and due on the first of every month.
