title: How Do Payments Occur for Reactivated PayPal Recurring Profiles?
body: <p>Consider the following scenario. A PayPal recurring profile is set to bill Smith $10 on the 6th of each month.</p>
  
  <p>In April, Smith's credit card expires and the recurring profile is automatically suspended.</p>
  
  <p>Smith then lets his subscription lapse for a few months.</p>
  
  <p>Then on September 25th he reactivates the profile (either through his PayPal account or my website via API).</p>
  
  <p>Will I receive the payment of $10 immediately upon the reactivation, and a new schedule will be automatically set up to bill Smith on the 25th of each month, or will he be charged only on October 6th, as per the original schedule?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
