If a particular company was to transfer money into my account in error (quiet regularly) and i say nothing and spend the money and somewhere down the line they were to realize it was an error on there part? Are they within there rights to come after me or is it tough shit on them??

Anyone know?

If they wanna gimme free money then iam hardly gonna inform them in fairness. Basically what's happening is that when i try to claim what iam owed back. The system shows an error and redirects me to try again but the reality is that each time i try its actually going on to the account but the system constantly shows an error. I have no idea how they would possibly find out as they would have millions of accounts in there data base but iam starting to worry if they could hold me responsible as its ALOT of money.

They'll find out when the person that the money should have gone to asks wtf it is. And they'll find it in your account. Or some of it

The money isn't coming from anyone's account though. That's the thing. It comes directly from the company themselves so nobody can possibly report it because nobody can kno about it. The only way would be if they looked at my account and said wait a minute, how is there that much money in that account so quickly.

No mate. They can set whatever repayment tariff they want or they will give a date for repayment fairly strict on it now.

Is it your work place or a financial instituition,

If its social welfare etc, they will vet it back,

A case last year of a guy who got over paid for a "month" 20yrs ago, they took it back out of his state pension, when he retired,

A gardai got auspended, fined , for scamming ATMs, he would key in €400, but only taking half out of the drawer, the door closes after a certain time, and he claimed off the bank, the bank noticed then he was pitting his card in again and keying in €200, that would pop out plus the other 200 he left behind.....he always had a witness, and of course, who wouldn't believe a guard, the bank copped on after a few times...

So you must be claiming for something that you know has already been paid to you...otherwise you would just have whats owed...its your actions as well as a computer error thats getting you the cash...can't see you not having to pay it back...

Maybe so, I only know one guy it happened to years and years ago and they made him pay it back, but at very low repayments...mind you he was young enough and had no money at the time.

As far as I am aware with UK law it is still classed as theft, all money will have to be paid back with some cases adding interest and court costs.

With the addition if having a criminal record on your plate and possibly losing you current job and not obtaining work long term in the future, there has been dozens of these cases throughout the UK since 2002 available on public record.

Do some research on it freedom of information act.

Even if it takes until the tax year they will notice.

Good luck

I do believe if it were a bank or other financial institution they would be entitled to repayment. If it were a company say lodging someone's paycheck into your account then they would have to sue you. Make an offer of 50% back (just make sure you keep 50% in the account.)

Just a matter of time before its noticed by the Company. Once an investigation takes place, there is a paper trail of all transactions. .. paper or electronic.

I've seen cases where this has come to light and the customer has had to take out a loan to repay.

"If a particular company was to transfer money into my account in error (quiet regularly) and i say nothing and spend the money and somewhere down the line they were to realize it was an error on there part? Are they within there rights to come after me or is it tough shit on them??

Anyone know? "

I work in the banking world and it is 100% recoverable. Once it's noticed all payments can be recalled without notice. Any funds not recovered you can be taken to court over and then enforcement proceedings can be taken against you.

Enforcement proceedings include a payment order and if you default the sherif can be ordered to come to your home and seize property if you don't have the funds to pay.

If you own your home they can obtain a judgement mortgage against you whereby a lien is put against the property. If you sell the property after your mortgage is cleared they will be paid, they can also petition the court for you to sell your property to clear the debt remaining

Just remembered a few months back that an employee at a bank filled the ATM machine up for the weekend and accidentally put 50's in the 20 euro slot. So you got 100 if you looked for 40. The queue at that ATM lol and balance only stated 40.

I know it's different but had to share.

Would the employee be responsible in that situation??

Sought legal advice. It's up to them to find the mistake. Iam not obliged to tell them however they can look for the money back when the mistake is found. It's not theft. You don't get a criminal record for it and you certainly won't get jail. But yet ppl here will tell ye it's me being dramatic...

No idea, it didn't happen to me. Got a phone call from a friend that was in the queue giving me the low down. They went straight to the pub. I assume the employee got in trouble for that mistake.

It's happened plenty of times, the banks are securely holding your money. If you take out and spend money that isn't yours then you are liable for it.

If you get the wrong amount given to you from an ATM you need to report it. Most idiots though think they've won the lotto and keep making withdrawals and then moan when the bank eventually debits them the correct amount and the people end up in debt and overdrawn

"If a particular company was to transfer money into my account in error (quiet regularly) and i say nothing and spend the money and somewhere down the line they were to realize it was an error on there part? Are they within there rights to come after me or is it tough shit on them??

Anyone know?

I do believe if it were a bank or other financial institution they would be entitled to repayment. If it were a company say lodging someone's paycheck into your account then they would have to sue you. Make an offer of 50% back (just make sure you keep 50% in the account.)

So it's OK to steal once you give half of it back ??"

How do you steal something given to you?

Your right but if you read the comments you would see i was referred to as stupid and a thief for merely asking for advice. I've since seeked advice elsewhere and the issue is being resolved but yet ppl here think they can bully ppl and run ppl down publicly in front of their little audience and then the lecture others on how to be adults in other threads.

I did, you are only responsible for your own actions and yes it's hard to keep calm...god knows I know that and have lost it myself too...we are all guilty of that. You opened the thread asking for feedback. Up to you how you handle it. You can ignore me but do seek legal advice.

Let us know what happens as I would be interested to know the outcome.

Sought legal advice. It's up to them to find the mistake. Iam not obliged to tell them however they can look for the money back when the mistake is found. It's not theft. You don't get a criminal record for it and you certainly won't get jail. But yet ppl here will tell ye it's me being dramatic...

If you sought legal advice from a solicitor he should be struck off. It is a criminal offence under sectiom 2 of the theft act receiving goods or services under a false pretence. You can act johnny big balls all you like. You will be charged with theft, tried in the circuit court and found guilty. Sín é"

The OP thinks he knows it all. Leave him off to spend his ill gotten gains
