Just make sure to do a complete log off and relog after your account page shows ESO+ as active. That will let the game client confirm the paid version over the trial version and credit you accordingly.
10:00 AM EST is when the next day begins for crediting, which is why the 9:59 AM EST cutoff is important if you're subscribing any time during the trial.
