The amount of my first monthly payment is higher, is this normal?
When you subscribed, you chose the method of payment by monthly debits, and you notice a higher amount at the first monthly payment.
This is completely normal, and it was announced to you when you subscribed to your imagine R plan.
Indeed, the first monthly payment includes the annual application fee of 8 euros, which is payable even in the event of renewal.
In addition, regardless of the date of subscription, the price of the imagine R package is due in full.
As a reminder, here are the start dates of validity of imagine R packages:
- imagine R Scolaire and imagine R Junior:
- First subscription: September 1st
- Renewal: October 1
- imagine R Student:
- on the 1st of each month, as you wish: September, October, November, December, January
In the event of a late subscription, the monthly instalments due are deducted with the first monthly instalment.
For example, if you subscribe to an imagine R Scolaire package in January, the months of September to January will have to be paid in one go by direct debit (including the 8 euros of application fees) at the first instalment.
Similarly, if you subscribe to an imagine R Student package in March, the months of January to March will have to be paid in one go (including the 8 euros application fee) at the first instalment.
