I have seen many people in this same situation. What is happening as this has been extremely stressful. 

Probably not any more than in previous years just that more people are resorting to forums to complain meaning more publicity about it.

Differing information on returns against what has been reported to HMRC has always happened.

My repayment had been removed and figures recalculated showing i now owed HMRC. I contacted HMRC to be told a letter was sent. The letter specified that my CIS deductions did not match what they had on file, with a copy of payments made to CIS. This specified that my contractor had only made a very small percentage of payments to CIS which was incorrect as i had proof of CIS statements and confirmation of payments from my contractors accountant. The letter asked if i agreed with the amendment or to send proof of CIS statements. I sent a covering letter with CIS statements of proof and now my tax account has now reversed to its previous calculation with repayment pending. 

Exactly the same situation for me, identical. 
you work for mills?

No it was just a small carpentry company. I have spoken with HMRC today in a webchat and apparently my repayment will be made in 10 working days.

ah intresting, over 40+ people at this firm i work at and only 3 got the rebate as normal the rest identical issues to us. 
and i waited the 10 working days, had to send a follow up email asking why its still pending after waiting 11 working days, I got a reply saying it went back into security checks which it shouldnt have since the issue was dealt with and I should be getting the return imminently.

Tbf when they said i should have my repayment in 10 working days the idea of more security checks came to mind. There seems to be a huge issue with the CIS department. Did you ever receive a letter after sending CIS statements.

It seems absurd that they would recalculate figures for a repayment and then send back for security checks. Do you know of anyone that has received a repayment after sending proof of CIS deduction's.

Probably different processes.

1. Checking your tax return matches the info they have
2. Security checks to make a payment

Surely once security checks have been completed it would not need another security check.

The security check is not about the information on the return.

It is to check that the repayment is being sent to the correct person and not someone else.

Two separate processes done by different sections.

A security check on a repayment cannot be done until the repayment is finalised.
