HMRC changed my tax code to claim back their overpaid Tax Credits

It gets so blooming complicated bubbles. I rarely get involved on the tax credit forums as its a minefield but I felt so sorry for Tracey. Especially as she has a letter stating it was not her fault.
She gave them the correct details and they messed up! Doesn't seem fair. She trusted that she was entitled to it, because they told her so.
She spent the money then got whacked.
Such a common story nowadays.0 -
HMRC have written to me and my employer informing that they are changing my tax code as years ago, I was apparently overpaid Tax Credits by £1077.33. They have therefore adjusted my tax code and reduced my tax-free amount to enable them to collect 'their' over payment. Are they allowed to do this? It was not my fault that they overpaid me? Is there anything I can do? Has this happen to you? Dates
So do you accept that they overpaid you?It's someone else's fault.0
