I'm having a bit of an issue with Eon Next. I used to mine ETH at home and the monthly electricity bill was quite high and resulted in a high estimated usage from the energy provider and a high direct debit.

I stopped mining but continued to pay the direct debit, resulting in my account with Eon being quite a bit in credit, to the sum of ~£2,400. That figure was generated by Eon a couple of weeks ago after I provided them with actual meter readings for the first time in a few months.

I asked for them to send me this money by bank transfer, and after a long rigmarole, including sending photos of the meters. Two weeks later, no bank transfer was made. I chased them up, and they asked me to provide new meter readings, because the old ones are over 14 days old.

I provided them with the meter readings, and now they say I'm only £1800 in credit. How is it possible this is the case? The actual usage over 2 weeks works out at £198.77, and my direct debit is still set up and running.

How can they simply swindle this money away? Any ideas?

Took me phoning up Scottish Power to refund mine. Then it got sorted quickly
