Mystery payment received

Recommended Posts

Have I missed a news story or something?.

Checking my online banking this morning, I've received a payment from Scottish Power for about £350.

I have been a customer of theirs in the past (via Sainsburys energy I think) but not for a few years & have no idea where it's come from.

Any ideas?.

It's not the first time either. Last summer I received a mystery payment of about £900 & the only reference was that it came from Bootle. No amount of googling located the source or reason for it & it's never been queried.

I'm not normally bad with money & do keep an eye on thngs, so these payments are just weird. Maybe I'm being "looked after" by someone in secret?.

Bootle is the Tax Office isn't it? Could have been a tax rebate?

Scottish Power could have been a refund for an overpaid account years ago. Apparently this is a common problem and OFGEN have been forcing energy companies to refund overpaid closed accounts (rather than operating a "don't ask, don't get" policy which is how they have always played it)
