This panicked me a bit yesterday but when I checked my bulb account they actually doubled my direct debit 9 months ago. Our average billl is <£100 and they've been taking 160 for the last 9 months. Wondered why we had a surplus.
Still not particularly worried about Bulb. I suspect other energy providers will be following suit.
They did the same with us. Pretty sure they’ve tried to build up a bit of a cash pot so you don’t go into debit during the winter, and it probably stops them getting into bulk financial difficulties. It’s a bit annoying though, because they’re sitting on +£230 of our money at any one time.
