Looked in my bank yesterday and a random amount of money got paid into my account so got a full statement and it was from my previous employer from like 1 month ago.
Thing is i cant see them paying me by mistake as there a big company etc and its all computerised.
Now if i spend it would i be abliged to pay it back if they asked??
I mean it would be there mistake not mine!!

if its monthly and you left a month ago, it might be wages your are owed

my old job did this with me and gave me £500 which i spent, they then started to send me letters asking me for the money back i advised that it was there error and that i dont have to pay it back
they then stopped asking for it back as there was nothing they could do

dont worry about it mate its prob owed hol pay or something just spend it and enjoy it,
if they have made a mistake it might be weeks or even months before they realise.

Also, you can claim you didn't know you had it in your account but you've already spent it. :panic:
