One of the terms and conditions of P2UD is:
On 12 month contracts, cashbacks valued over £50 will be paid in 3 instalments, one third of the cashback
at month 6, one third at month 9 and the final third on month 12.
You have to make sure you get this right as lots of people are loosing their cashback claims because of this.
Invoice number 6 is actually the 7th invoice you receive from the network, 9 is the 10th and 12 is the 13th.
When you first sign up for your contract you get an invoice from the network telling you how much you will have to
pay, this one doesn't count, it starts counting from the next invoice.
The easiest way to work out what invoice you are supposed to send is by counting 180 days from the moment you get your
phone conected, and the invoice you get on or after that date is the number 6 and so on.
As for the invoice number 12 (or 13th) don't worry because even if you don't renew your contract withe the network
they will still send you a closing invoice which is the one you have to send phones2udirect.
Let me give you an example. If you buy your phone on 3rd September, the invoices you would have to send are:
March, June and September.
