leaving OVO problem

Hi all, has anyone encountered my problem. I've had my final bill and it shows I was in credit, OVO have refunded me, no problem. Was I wrong. This was all completed & finalised before my dd was meant to be collected at end of month. They are now sending me debt collection emails saying I owe £91. Emailed them with copy of final bill with dates ending 9 May, and the response I'm getting is the £91 is out of my £171 credit, but it makes no sense my final statement is ends 9 May & money they say I owe is from 28th May. Am I being really stupid here?

    Did the old supplier include May's payment when doing their calculations?
