    Why should he wait weeks/months for his DD to be refunded ?

    Because those are the guidelines.

    6 weeks for a final bill, and another 2 weeks thereafter for settlement.

    It may be a lit longer in these difficult circumstances where a supplier has ceased to trade.
    Lots of people maybe do say fake things of TP,
    Glad you agree with me on that one :)
    are you suggesting that dizastru is also telling porkies, even though his story is exactly the same ?
    There is no agreement as to what is owed, how much, to who, until the final bill is produced (and then agreed by the customer)
  • But EE/Ovo took his money when he wasn't even a customer !



    If your last supplier took a DD from your bank account would you be happy to wait weeks/months for it to returned ? I don't think so.

    The account remains open until it is setlled.
    All debts are not wiped as soon as the supplier ceases to supply (which is probably a good thing if the poster is at all accurate about the status of the account :))

    It's the same with all energy suppliers

    Yes, it happens to many of us when we change supplier.
    It will be included in the final bill.
    It may not be returned - it may be used to offset some of the money still owed to the supplier.

    What's the sudden urgency? The poster seemed to be unconcerned being £200 in credit... :cool:

    If you are unhappy to accept this method of payment - do not accept paying this way from the outset ... but it may cost you quite a bit more!
