Anyone had any experience of getting a refund off EDF? I’ve had a bill through saying I’m £1100 in credit, they’re charging me 300 a month and my predicted bill for the next year is £2800. Surely all of that credit should be refunded given my monthly payments easily cover the usage for the next year?! That or reduce my payments, they haven’t suggested either.

We just had an email through from eon.next saying our bill is going up to 124 a month. We was paying 100 a month after coming out of our original tariff which went up to 218 quid. The tariffs they was offering was at 160/180 per month so I just let it ride being on 100.

Will let this go a couple of months and see what happens.

Martin lewis says you only need to be in credit to the amount you pay for two months only , i am with edf , if you ask for some back or a decrease in your dd they usually do it , it is your money
 
A few weeks ago we finally agreed to get an electricity smart meter fitted, as our meter is forty years old. the guy came and said our meter’s code doesn’t correspond with their records, so there is a risk that if we switch to a Smart meter, we will still get standing charges for the one replaced. It is their cock-up, he said he would log it, but we have zero confidence that this will be resolved anytime in the next decade. Life in 21st Century UK eh?

Get rid of EDF pal fucking terrible company then you’ll get it all back we switched to octopus as soon as they allowed it never looked back.
 
Had an email last month off British gas reminding us that energy prices are going down from 1st October.

Yet every day since then when I get up, our damned smart meter is telling me we've spent more between midnight and 6am, than we did before this supposed decrease. We don't have the heating on at all overnight, nothings changed on what we leave plugged in and on standby, so wtf?

Maybe, good idea. I'll check cheers.

*edit* yep, it was exactly that. As part of the "good news your energy prices are going down" email, the sneaky b*stards have also increase my standing charge to 34p per day for gas and 58p for leccy.

To compensate themselves they have been allowed by OFGEM to up standing charges.

Its a disgrace what happens in the energy sector in this country.

7am this morning and my smart meter is sat on £1.97!

I fucking give up.
