letter sent with wrong amount, what now??

Options
Hi all, I sent my 1st letter to Lloyds tsb but i put in the wrong total amount.

I have 2 accounts i'm claiming fees back from. The letter for one account is ok but on the letter for the other account i put the total for both accounts added together instead of the total for just the account concerned.

I've put £2480 instead of £1565, a difference of £915.

My question is, should i wait and see how they respond or, send it all again with the correct amount ?? :confused:

    As you've over-stated the amount they owe you, I'm sure they will correct you before paying!!

    If they won't pay back or don't answer, just make sure you send in a detailed LBA with a correct list charges you wish to claim back before using MCOL.

    LBA.........Letter Before Action. This is the second letter you send requesting your charges are repaid. In this letter, you are saying that if you don't receive a satisfactory reply, you will commence a court claim without further notice.

    MCOL
    .........Money Claim Online. This is the online site for making a claim through the county court.
