Hardly surprising, these adjustments to billing systems almost never go smoothly. Rest assured you will eventually get charged the right rate and credited for any discrepancy.

The GST gets charged at invoice date; not when you receive your goods. So if you went into a store on December 27th and bought a fridge to be delivered on January 3rd, you would still have paid the 6% GST.
It can also work in reverse. If you performed services in December, but aren't billing for them in January, the new rate applies.
