    I thought if you did that they just sent the money by Bacs Direct Credit?
    Or at least that's how they paid me.

    They used to do that, but for at least 2 years now they have been sending an actual cheque to my bank.

    Maybe it depends on what type of reclaim it is? Mine is for tax on interest via form R40.

    Mine was in the last six months for a refund of tax on interest overpaid, but this was through a self assessment tax return.

    The option for a cheque was on the web page, but I just put my bank details in and it showed up a few days later as "HMRC".

    Well I had a pleasant phone call this morning - It is my money - It was NSI, it was so long ago I requested to cash the bond (and I asked for payment via Direct Debit), so the cheque "paid in" threw me.

    I do think if organisations send a cheque direct to the branch, they should send a letter. I have "fretted" for days I had someone else's money.

    Thanks all.
