when switching what happens to credits ?

Options
Hi,

I'm in credit on both my gas and electric accounts.

If I switch will these be refunded or transferred ? or do I have to get them back myself ?

Thanks.

Barry.

    I have just switched from BG and to be fair they just credited my bank account directly.

  • Thats good news, I'm about £250 in credit.

    Thanks.

  • Same happened to me. Had a house that was empty and Scottish Power insisted that I kept paying a Direct Debit that was realistic for a house that somebody was living in. By the time I sold the house I was £350 in credit. That was a very nice cheque to get in the post!
