    Just to update this thread, I returned the money back to the client and they were very apologetic and said they were sorry for the mix up....I took the upper hand ...

    Alternative first post -

    I've been overpaid by a client. I'm going to return it to them but is it the case they can't force me to do so or do other work to compensate? If they couldn't force me they might appreciate my returning the money even more.

    Ok, humour us, what WAS it about exactly if not you trying to keep money that you weren't entitled to?
    I'm not bad at golf, I just get better value for money when I take more shots!
