    I recieved a letter yesterday, saying they didn`t pay me enough so they need my bank details so they can send a further payment of over £300. This will be paid by bacs and allow 30 days.


    Cool, so more on the way then?
    Well done!:beer:

    Hi there

    You can contact them to ask them about this, or another way would be to request a SAR, you enclose a payment of £10 cheque or postal order for this request, and they have 40 calendar days to comply.
    If your unable to locate the account number then give them as many details as you can, full name, any addresses you lived in at the time, date of birth and any name changes whilst you had the account, good luck.
    SAR template letter here:

    But otherwise send the form back anyway and see what happens.
