Checked my account and noticed still no Tax credits payed in!!! When i phoned them after 40mins on my mobile they informed me of an overpayment of £1300! Very shocked as i have informed them of each change in circumstance. They said there is a letter in the post. Not Happy what should i do?:(

wait for your letter, to see what the overpayment is for?
if you have told them each time of an increase, i see no fault at your end,
Once you have the letter you will have clearer details and can go from there.0 -

Also add up every single payment you have received into your bank and check the figure against the amount that TCO claim to have paid you - A few years ago I was told that I'd been massively overpaid despite informing them of every change in circumstances.
Six months later I had a light bulb moment,checked 12 months of bank statements and hey presto I'd actually received nearly 3k less than the TCO Thought I Had. Turned out that It was a computer glitch and managed to sort it out once I had the evidence !!!
Good luck0
