The plan is 12.99 why there is a charge of 25.99Euros at first?

Because the first plan purchase also requires a one time activation fee of €12.99:

€12.99 Plan

This €12.99 Plan is only available to new 48 customers who order their 48 SIM and purchase a €12.99 Plan from the 5^thApril 2022. A one-time activation fee of €12.99 applies with the first plan purchase.

Note that the total charge is 2 x €12.99 = €25.98 not €25.99.

If you qualify for the second month free offer then this will effectively cancel the activation fee out:
