Mumwitch

Received a refund from local council but they put my name as miss xxxxxx xxxxxx instead of Ms which it has been for 15. years,  will the bank still accept it when I go to pay it in

I think there’s a very good chance they will

Stick it in the automated paying in machine.

Surely if  the name is correct the title should not make any difference.

Ms and Miss are the same unless you meant Mrs?
 As others have said the title isn’t important so long as the name is correct.

Mumwitch

Yes my name is correct and I'm definitely a Ms, paid it in this morning and they didn't say anything but it's not showing up on mobile banking as yet,  unsure if it only shows when cleared,  fingers crossed,  thanks to everyone who replied

I think Miss implies your single, Mrs married and Ms is Dint’t know (on part of writer who doesn’t know status or preferred title)wouldn’t say/none of your business

Ms effectively means "why should women (unlike men) be defined by marital status, which is a bizarre patriarchal anachronism?"

First of all, it's YOU'RE. Secondly, Ms can refer to any woman, regardless of marital or any other status and thirdly, just . go away.
