I downloaded my Ovo bills for the past twelve months at intervals (not always in the current month). Now, checking them all, I notice that ‘opening balance’ from a particular month often does not match ‘closing balance’ from the previous month. This occurs in six months out of the twelve. The opening credit balance is sometimes above and sometimes below the previous closing balance, by anything from couple of pounds to about £60.
I have therefore downloaded all twelve bills again from “Billing History” and six of the bills are completely different from those downloaded earlier. The sequence now shows one month’s closing balance and next month’s opening balance perfectly matching each other.
The fuel costs and total charges on each bill under the heading “Summary of charges” are also discrepant between the earlier downloaded bills and those currently on the system
How can it happen that the bills stored in “Billing History” -- supposedly an archive of the customer’s documents that s/he can check at any time -- vary from those downloaded at earlier dates? This destroys all confidence in the reliability of the billing process.
(And what about earlier years, I now wonder? -- off to check!)
