Gas Customers in Credit
Money Supermarket have announced that Gas customers are in credit by £490m!
During the winter months, gas companies have approx. £490m of unspent money, this means that on average, nearly 9 million people who pay by direct debt are likely to be in credit by £56 with their gas utility provider.
Chief Executive Duncan Sedgwick said:
For every person in credit there is at least one other person in debit to their energy supplier. This is because over the course of the year people use three times more gas during the winter than they do in the summer and paying by direct debit conveniently spreads the cost of the bill throughout the year.
He added
All the energy suppliers regularly review the amount of their customers’ direct debit payments and people can call their company at any time to discuss the amount they should be paying
