Surely your tariff till August will be lower than the current variable rate assuming that your tariff started last August or earlier? Am I missing something here? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I missing something here? It was August-August (1 year) on a fixed tariff. Next year it will be higher. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, I thought you said you were locked into a tariff which implied that you were stymied till August. In fact, it’s the reverse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that's happened here is that you haven't paid for your energy in a while, that's not the same thing as your bills not going up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you mean I havent paid EDF then i have each month. If you mean they havent charged me enough then you would be right. Either way, Im confused. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 The direct debit is not directly linked to your bill, it is just an estimated cost that would have been made under your previous tariff. They have not yet billed you under the new tariff, at which point you will no doubt see an increase in the amount that you have actually been charged for gas and/or electricity, and that is the point where they will probably request an increase in your direct debit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My DD remains the same and in now about £600 in credit. Havent had a "bill" since March right enough. I had a wonderful couple of days earlier this year - my energy provider had been massively undercharging me as a result of being on estimates for eight months (the smart meter had stopped sending data back home and I'd no idea). I was pissed enough to change suppliers and the recommended direct debit for the new supplier was huge as a result, but they recommended that I leave it at that until they worked out what my usage was. Then they went under a few months later, and the supplier who inherited me said the same; leave it as-is and we can adjust it later. Then they went tits up, and the provider who inherited me...well, you get the idea. As a result, when they finally sorted out my account, I was over £800 in the black and they recommended dropping my direct debit to a third of what I'd been paying. Happy days. A few days later, they recommended that I increase it back up to £20 a month less than the overinflated rate I'd been struggling to pay originally 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
