£93 Direct Debit!

[Neil1]

Last night I was checking my bank account via the app on my phone and there was a Direct Debit payment to a company for £93 that I had never heard of.

Quickly did some searching via Google on my phone which yielded some results but thought would get the laptop out in morning to investigate further as it was 2am.

So up early this morning armed with a mug of tea started checking through on my laptop.

Waited for my Bank to open and phoned them, got the £93 reimbursed and the Direct Debit cancelled.
They said we have a phone number so made a note of that but it was a business that only conducts payments called Go Cardless.
They aren't open at weekends.

The energy company was called Green Energy Supply Limited although this yielded no results as such except a name change on the Ofgem website.

Eventually I discovered a Company called Green.Energy and I phoned them and they admitted they were Green Energy Supply Limited.

After giving them my Postcode and Address they said they didn't have any houses in my road or area and couldn't understand how this had happened.

The gentleman I was talking to checked with their payment section and they couldn't find anything either.

The strange part is I have Pay As You Go Smart Meters and they don't deal with Pay As You Go only the Standard Meters.

I will contact Go Cardless on Monday to find out what they have to say.
