Bullcrap

I just got a letter from the RN saying I owe them £278 because they claim they overpaid me. I know they didn't because I wasn't working for the last 9 days of october and only recieved 700 ish instead of the usual £945. This is shit I don't have that money right now :mad:

That's bad...
Perhaps you can write them a letter explaining it? At least you'll win time if you contest it (ie you wouldn't have to pay 'right now' in the event that they keep insisting).

Good idea. I'm trying to check my bank history but having trouble logging in. I can't believe this it's come at the worst time.

RN? I assume that doesn't stand for Registered Nurse.

Most likely Royal Navy, I remember Pepper talk about joining.

Yeah it's royal navy. If this is a mistake I should have recieved this in november just after my payslip. Which I can't find to prove I wasn't overcharged.

Did you get a November pay stub and your accounting (bank statements, accounting application, what have you) shows the deposits as correct for the last 6 months?

The letter should say which pay period the overpayment occurred in.


I think (don't quote me on this) a business (government included) can request funds returned on an overpayment up to 12 months past. It is possible they didn't find the mistake until they started doing their annual auditing.

It says I recieved it on the 21st october which is not the paydate. I didn't get the money that day because I had none because I spent almost all of it and I'd have noticed. I'm trying to get bank statements but HBOS's security stuff keeps locking me out even if I give the right password.

So most likely, the pay period was in September-October. Do you have pay stubs for that period and is the amount paid the amount you were entitled to receieve? If so, those stubs would be your smoking gun--they made an accounting error.

I'l dig them out. I know my pay was exactly £945 because i don't pay tax yay :) and I recieved 700 which makes up for the 9 days i wasn't working. Damn need those stubs. Alternatively it says i can pay it back in installments and doesn't matter how much or how long so I might give them 30p a month.
