Request an Avro Energy Refund in Less Than Two Minutes

Many UK households have waited months for their credit overdue to be transferred from Avro Energy to Octopus Energy, which is the new provider. However, there's still no timeframe for them to receive their credit.

If you've been affected by the collapse, you're probably wondering how to go about requesting an Avro Energy refund. With all that's happening, their customer support is probably unresponsive. Getting a refund is a whole new story. According to sources, the energy supplier allegedly holds customers' refunds ransom.

Luckily, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act protects buyers who use credit cards to buy solutions costing £100 to £30,000. It puts the responsibility on the merchant and card issuer, meaning that you can claim a chargeback if the company you purchased from goes out of business. But with all the bureaucracy that goes into the process, it can be intimidating.

DoNotPay can save you the trouble. We can help you get a refund from any company, including Avro Energy, Argos, easyJet, Amigo Loans, Trainline, and Wowcher. Read on to find out more.

How to Get an Avro Energy Refund on Your Own

Like many households that overpaid their energy supplies, you're probably waiting to receive your refunds after months of delays. Meanwhile, you're struggling with direct debits and other problems, which add to the stress. But there are steps you can take to fight back against Avro Energy.

Request a Credit Refund

You can request a refund by reaching out to Avro Energy's customer support service. Here's how to contact Avro Energy:

If you've already been transferred to Octopus, you can contact them by hitting the little button below your balance on your account dashboard. You can also send an email to avro@octopus.energy.

Refer Neglected or Rejected Complaints to a Mediator

If your complaint is dismissed or eight weeks have elapsed, and you still haven't gotten your refund, you can take your case to the Energy Ombudsman by calling 0330 440 1624 or submitting a complaint online. You can also try to resolve the issue through Citizen Advice online or by calling 0808 223 1133.

Unfortunately, getting a refund is not always easy–and it's even harder when you're trying to get it from a collapsing company. You might never get a response, and if you're lucky, you'll only get a fraction of your hard-earned money. DoNotPay can easily help you cancel your request for an Avro Energy credit refund.

Here’s a summary of how you can request a refund from Avro Energy:

Avro Energy Refund Policy

Octopus Energy, a company that took over Avro Energy, will pay domestic credit balances for Avro Energy's customers who are owed money. So, if you overpaid Avro Energy, you can request a refund from them. However:

1. Octopus will only issue a refund if you have excess credit on your energy account than you need and you have an energy bill based on real meter readings in the last 14 days.
2. If you were owed but left Avro before the takeover, your data is likely being imported into Octopus's system. Octopus is processing refunds in batches over the coming weeks.
3. Since Avro Energy is collapsing, there's no official time frame for customers to receive refunds.

Issues You Might Encounter When Requesting a Refund from Avro Energy

When requesting a refund, the biggest problem that you'll run into is not knowing who to contact between Avro and Octopus Energy. Avro went out of business, and most of its customers were moved to Octopus.

If you decide to involve the Ombudsman, it would still be hard for the mediator to find fault on the part of Octopus Energy, particularly since Octopus absorbed many clients at a difficult time.
