    Hi,

    I feel a bit silly but an electricity account I have on a property is set up to be paid by direct debit.

    I somehow mixed it up and in addition to the bill being paid by direct debit Ive paid a number of these bills in post office as well without realising until now. I know it says just below the total  "pay by direct debit" but really a comedy of errors resulted in this.

    Anyway as a result Ive double paid, how do I go about getting a refund for the overpayment..I can provide proof etc if needed but presumably you can see details of the double payments yourselves?
