I'm on Panther Extra Loy 36 (24m) - But looking at this:
here are this month's charges

Charges subject to VAT 35.00
VAT at 20.00% on £35.00 7.00
Total charges for this month £42.00

here's a summary of your account

Balance from previous bill 0.00
Payment received 0.00
Total charges for this month 42.00

Amount due £42.00

totals
your plan and bundles 35.00
Total charges for this month excluding VAT £35.00
VAT at 20.00% on £35.00 7.00
Total charges for this month including VAT £42.00

As it's the first month, billing cycles are:

Panther Extra Loy 36 (24m) : 19 Dec - 23 Dec 5.00
Panther Extra Loy 36 (24m) : 24 Dec - 23 Jan 30.00

I am right in saying here they are charging me VAT on top of the £36 contract?

    £30+VAT=£36.
    The first bill is usually bigger because it covers more than one billing month - like in your case.
