, and what's more, he's not using that account, so he would have nothing to have appropriated the money to in the first place.

I suppose (s)he could have pre-advised that (s)he needs to withdraw £x in cash over the counter to pay for rent or something.

But all quite academic since there was no pre-advice.

Best (s)he can hope for is that they would have an empathy attack and re-credit some of the money. Most unlikely though, given that there seems to have been no effort for 6 months to repay the existing debt.

I have been paying off my overdraft, and HMRC are reclaiming the WTC back. I have used this letter of appropriation before, when my mum died, and they took her money out of her a/c, and they refunded it, and wiped out her credit card debt. I did not know that the WTC was going into this a/c, so I could not have done it beforehand. I was only informed of it this week, that it was paid into Nationwide. Nationwide withdrew the overdraft on 12/6, and the WTC was paid in on 25/6.
