    I got a random extra payment too. This happened to me a few months back as well (March). I phoned up last time and I was told not to worry the money was mine. So I spent it! Lovely I thought, only the next payment was reduced by the amount of the additional payment!! So in reality, I didn't get anything extra - just money earlier than usual.

    Phoned again this time and was told system threw out an extra payment but the remainder of my payments for the rest of the tax year are reduced by about £60 each month to account for the extra payment :(
