No, you will have a full account for a month's playtime. Pirate

Depends on how much you've played and trained on the account you're using now.

Hi folks.
I've question related to interaction between my trial account and Starter Pack.
So, i have trial acc and i've played about 7 days. Let's assume i will buy Starter Pack. My questions are:
1) Can i use it for my trial acc or i must create new one?
2) If i can use it for my current acc, will i get 30 days as addition and will be my acc upgraded from trial to regular?
3) Prototype booster. As from description: "<>as such, it will cease to function for pilots who have been registered for more than 14 days.". So will be one usable for me during the (14 - my current playing time length) days or I will not be able to use it at all?

Thanks in advance.

The Black Friday new account scheme is for players wishing to create a new character account without going through the trial process. It is probably being marketed more toward existing players who may wish to create an alt account, but this does not mean that a new player cannot take advantage of this offer if they wish to forego the progress they have made through their trial accounts and fire up a brand new, fully activated account directly. You cannot upgrade your existing trials with this promotion, I believe. To upgrade your existing trials, you will need to add game time at the regular prices listed for each package in Account Management.

As for Buker Hilanen's questions: 1) Create a new one, 2) N/A to the Black Friday deal, but if you add game time to your account that account becomes a regular, fully active account, 3) I believe you can use that booster up to 14 days after you have added game time to your account.

Hope that helps.

I think that depends on which Black Friday deal you buy. The one direct from CCP requires a fresh start, but the Starter Packs sold by third parties, like Amazon, appear to work to upgrade trial accounts.
