Customers of major energy suppliers like British Gas, Octopus Energy, EON Next, EDF Energy, and OVO Energy could be entitled to claim refunds of up to £500 if they have been paying more than necessary into their energy accounts. It has been revealed that around 16 million households across the UK currently hold credit balances in their energy accounts. This surplus has accumulated due to direct debit payments that exceeded actual winter energy usage.
