collect creditor on my bank statement

Jimmyjamwhambam

Hi everyone, the above has done a bank giro transfer and actually paid me in over £160 into my account? I have no idea what this is for and my bank cant tell me either?

Ive had money back form companies before but never seen anything like this?

Any help appreciated.

Not sure what you are asking?

You have been paid some money into your bank but dont know who is it from>

If the payments is from Collect Creditor then it could be a debt collection company,

Have you repaid a debt? This could be an overpayment,

I've had a couple similar to this in recent years - the payment reached my account before the associated paperwork came in the post and had me bamboozled.

Mine were repayments and interest from late payment fees - those where you were late paying a bill and were charged something like 12 quid. There was some ruling a bit back about these being repaid, with interest. I got about £70 - 80 back with the interest.

They weren't easily identifiable on the statement as they were paid by some handling company, as a giro credit (usually used for counter payments for bills, I thought I'd got some old dears gas bill pennies), not the organisation I had the relationship with. Maybe it's something like this.

I've just moved house so there is money flying all over the place as we are doing it all up so i cannot even begin to think what this might be!
