Pay Dilemma

Hi,

Not sure where I should post this query so I'm sorry if it should be somewhere else.

We have a monthly bonus that has just started at work, basically we get a team bonus and one individual gets the sales advisor of the month bonus on top, which I have been lucky enough to receive this month, so on my payslip I am expecting to see 2 bonus amounts. We are not due to be paid until 26th August but yesterday I saw my payslip online and it looks like I have been paid an additional bonus of £1590 so not an amount that you wouldn't notice!

Assuming I get this amount in August should I tell them i've been overpaid or just wait and see if they request this back at any stage?

I don't know if anyone else has this because I haven't mentioned it to anyone!

Do you think I should say now that I think i've been overpaid or just keep quiet and put it away in a bank account until they request it back?

Thanks

    forgot to mention the £1590 is the amount we all got paid last month for our 3 month bonus, so don't know if they have made a mistake and paid everyone this amount again, not having mentioned it to anyone at work!
