    My GNE website is back up and running and I was able to enter a meter reading. The portal also shows the DD's made since Edf  took over.

    After learning my power supplies were being transferred to EDF from 31 January I took & submitted my actual meter readings and then just sat back to see what would happen. Well that was a 'Welcome' email from EDF on 1 Feb & a 'You Just Joined us' email on 3 Mar. GNE have still been taking my DDs (on 12 Feb & 12 Mar) and no new DD has been set up for EDF. I haven't given anyone any further readings.
    Based on my experience of the SoLR switch from Yorkshire Energy to Scottish Power  I expected that:
    a) GNE wouldn't be billing me beyond 31 Jan OR be taking DDs, &
    b) EDF would by now have set up a DD & be asking me for my start readings & beyond.
     
    PS using the 'who is my supplier' link my gas is with EDF but my electric is still with GNE (well it shows a little red x in a box but gives the contact no for GNE  :/)

    I haven't had any further DDs taken since GNE stopped operating - my DD is still live though.

    I would presume no further payments were meant to be taken by them until EDF take over ?

    Thanks.  that explains it.
  • After seeing the comments immediately following mine I assume that everyone else is also having DDs taken by EDF unless they cancelled their DDs (or cancelled and reinstated like @BigBlueSky??). Will continue to sit back & try not to stress about it.

    EDF have now taken a couple of direct debits from our account, the same value that GNE were taking.
