    I had just given them a meter reading and I was not using more energy than expected, ( I had already worked out my last years consumption: electricity=2319kwh  gas=5019kwh). It is sneaky because if I build up a credit then they are earning interest on my money. The direct debit was £42 and increase to £49.   
    In my experience of Yorkshire Energy they don't try 'sneaky' tricks and are very straightforward to deal with.  

    Looking at your annual consumption figures and YE tariffs £49 a month looks pretty much in line with what you should expect over a total 12 month period.  You will likely end up in a credit position by the end of the summer but it will sort it self out once the heavier consumption kicks in.  If the credit gets too high they will likely amend the DD down as they did with me.  I have found them to be a very competent and fair energy company to deal with and they're aren't many that you can say that about (hence why I renewed with them which is a rarity for me)
