    Strangely, EonNext have reduced my DD by £67 commencing 1st Oct with payment taken on the 5th. I was under the impression that the initial reductions are £66?
    £135 reduced to £68.
    I have had the same with Sainsbury's Energy (Eon-Next in disguise).  Quite happy to accept £402 rather than £400!

    You aren't getting £402, you will pay £402 less than you would have, and you will get a credit of £400 from the Government.
    Net result is you will have paid £2 less into the pot from which your actual bills will be deducted.
