Hi
Recently switched to Santander to take offer of their £185 switch offer. It's been paid into my account three times over. Same with my wife and parents. I hadn't realised and had have already ordered a switch out to Monzo which will become our main accounts again.
What do I do?
Thanks,
Emmgeebee

The right thing to do would be to notify them of the unexpected credits....3

I feel this is a game of Monopoly but:

Ring up or use secure messaging and tell them, they'll eventually realise and come after you for the money, or maybe just decide it's not worth it but keeping quiet isn't a good idea.
Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.
