I’ve been in credit by more than £500, but still increases the DD

I’ve been in credit by more than £500. OVO increased my Direct Debit would increase from £214 to £251. Why can this be on a per year bases; would make ever bodies life a lot easier? Not to have these constant changes.
I contacted OVO by email, there cannot talk to you or do not answer questions.
They obviously do not wish for customers that pay!
Should have stayed with EDF, they may have been a little more expensive but at least the DD stayed the same for 12months at a time.

Wrongly set a debt collector on me !!!

Wrongly set a debt collector on me at the beginning of this year, 4 YEARS AFTER LEAVING THEM. Initially denied any wrongdoing, then after admitting thier mistake advised they couldn’t call them off !!??
Ended up having to get the Ombudsman involved, and even then it took them months to correct things.
Left me with a bad credit rating, which had serious knock on consequences, still affecting me today.
A truly despicable company.
