    So energy has credited my account with £66.00 on the 5th October. i 'think' they reduce the DD but my DD is way too low right now anyway with no recent adjustments from So. i know what my annual usage/cost will be so whichever way, thats how much PM is going to So or a "bills" account.

    My first £66 Energy Bills Support credit was paid into my EON Next Flex account yesterday and I'm already £26.33p IN CREDIT.  I sold my house in March and renting a 2bed flat for 12 months until I find a place to buy and my monthly bills have been under £50.

    I choose not to have a smart meter so read my meter on the 2nd of the month and within 48 hours pay on line with my debit card when the bill comes through.
  • @superkoopauk, read the website !

    If you pay DD Whole Amount Monthly then a credit will be added to your account and the next bill reduced accordingly.

    If you pay a monthly fixed DD then that will be taken as normal (no reduction in amount) and the £66/67 support payment refunded directly to the BANK ACCOUNT from which you pay.
    I guess my question is when is this going to happen?  Would of expected to see the credit on my account by now.

    Before the end of October.

    Although more likely in the first half of the month.
  • As EDF say for Budget Direct Debit (Monthly)

    "An automatic refund each month to the bank account your Direct Debit payments are taken from"

    I would take that to mean that the refund will be processed once your monthly DD has been taken.

    You will only get an account credit on these payment methods : 
    Cash/Cheque and Direct Debit Whole Amount

    PS. It's "would have", not "would of"
