anyone got a letter from tax credits about an extra payment

funkyfreks

Sal,
what an awful time of year for that to happen, cross my fingers arms and legs that they don't do that to us right now, as I already budgeted to use my tax credits towards cost of christmas dinner, suppose if they do could have pigs without blankets and bernard mathews turkey drummer though :rotfl:
Happy Christmas I hope it hasn't hit your finances too hard hun xx

great another mess the hmrc are going to create i bet we'll all be having the help i had over payments for the sys update but they continued to pay the normal rate and i now owe money higher than normal and i couldnt stop it as their systems were down!! and no one knew their bum form butter any better than they do now!! threads!!

I've received this letter this morning. It does seem a bit odd that there is no indication of dates or amounts.
It seems quite pointless really

i've got this letter too!i know a few other people that have recieved it, but i know more people that HAVEN'T!!

Its very,very strange as tax credits NEVER inform you when they are putting an extra payment in the bank!I've not had a change of circumstances etc

Yup I got an extra payment too.

Don't pretend to understand how they do their calculations but it's always nice to have a bit extra in the bank

Unfortunately not! I got my usual payment plus an extra £121.

are they sending the letters out alphabeticaly (sorry about the spelling)

I still havent received a letter regarding any change to my payments so im still thinking it isnt everybody.
As regards to them sending them alphabetically I doubt it cos im H which is fairly early in the alphabet and I havent got anything.
Receive mine on a wednesday so ill post if I have any extra in my account.
