Hi, we are usually emailed our bill but haven't received this month's. We have just been informed that our account has been put on a 'billing hold, ' although the bill is still showing on our online account and we have been advised to carry on paying our bills from here until the issue has been resolved. Why would our account be put on a billing hold? Is it just a technical issue? Something to do with the Government energy support scheme? We have never missed a payment and send regular meter reading etc

Why has our energy account been put on a billing suspension?

Most likely it’s a technical issue. Billing Suspensions are never your fault so you don’t need to worry. They get used when something goes wrong on OVO’s side as a protective measure to prevent account corruption and to ensure you don’t get invalid bills.
For the time being, I echo OVO’s advice. Please continue making payments as usual as these will all be credited to the next bill as appropriate. OVO will inform you when the Billing Suspension is lifted.
As a forum volunteer, I can’t tell you why the hold was placed.
