op take all the paper work with you
and just throw your self on the sword.
and admit you made a mistake and offer to pay it back.

i know of people who have recieved a caution in regards to these matters. But they are rare

And bank statements. As much bumf as you can get together. Don't give them a chance to back you into a corner. If you have all the facts to hand you should be okay as long as you don't make peurile excuses. :cool:

Got to be honest, it doesn't look great, as this is the second overpayment. OP, you need to either get a grip of your finances or get someone else to deal with them for you.
