Wrong direct debit amount shown online.

I telephoned to point out that the sum shown for my monthly direct debit was incorrect. The very pleasant young lady I spoke to assured me that it was a technical error and corrected it . She said it might take a few days to show the correct figure on my account. Unfortunately it still shows an incorrect amount which I have tried 3 times to correct online myself.
The correct amount was taken as usual from my account but still shows the wrong direct debit amount online.
it just worries me a little that the wrong amount still shows.

I renewed my energy supplier because Scottish power knows how to look after their customers. I do like the energy savers option and tips they give customers on how to reduce energy consumption. I was able to make adjustments to pay the exact amount. Thanks to the customer service rep. Sorry can’t recall his name.
