French electricity supplier EDF has double-debited the bank accounts of one million customers this week, blaming the error on an IT problem.
The company has promised to refund the money within 48 hours, adding that it so far is not aware of the nature of the bug that caused the double billing on Monday and Tuesday this week. Customers have been advised to look for an email from EDF informing them of the problem.
