I set my bill up at first to be paid manually by me but changed it to a direct debit, it then said by bill was overdue so I payed it manually as the direct debit didn't come out on the date I set it, my account now says it is £96 in credit ( my monthly bill is £48), any idea what to do?

Just as an FYI, manual payments should never be paid unless specifically instructed by Sky. The T&Cs of the contracts state that a direct debit or a continuous payment method must be setup on your account for Sky to automatically request the bill payments. If a direct debit is setup you won't need to make a manual payment unless its failed ( although Sky will retry a failed direct debit 10 days later). One thing to note is that a direct debit may not be taken on the date you are expecting as they won't be taken on weekends or bank holidays and instead will be taken the next working day.

How would I go about escalating for a refund?

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out moreSky require you to have either a direct debit or monthly automatic card payment, so you were right to set up a direct debit.
Has you last bill been paid? Depending on when you make it, a manual payment. may go towards your next bill rather than the one that's due, leaving your current bill unpaid.

Providing you have an automatic means of payment set up, either a direct debit or a monthly card payment, you shouldn't need to worry about fees for late payment.
