    I'm with octopus my bills have also gone from always in credit to in debit , I think they have maybe changed the date they issue bills ? Mine changed when the smart meters were installed plus my direct debit has increased by £20 
    Perhaps your readings are just more accurate. Remember before smart meters they bill you whenever you provide a reading, but with smart meters you just get a monthly bill, so it's probably at a different time to your direct debit date. Just increase your direct debit if you're concerned.

    You can also change the day your DD comes out using the option to manage the payment in your online account.
