Are my bank details on a faster payment to my sons account?

Options
Hello, I have sent some money from my Santander account to my sons Monzo account by faster payments. He has let me know that he doesn't need the money and will return it to me. Will he have my bank details from the original transfer or will I have to give them to him?

    You will need to give them to him.

    all he'll get is whatever reference you put on the payment like "xxx from sparkie" or similar.

    Be aware that money in quickly followed by money out to the same account may trigger a flag for possible money laundering with your son's bank.

    Certainly possible, however, I have done exactly that, between Skipton and Halifax, every month, for over two years now.

    From your own accounts or between two in different names?

    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.
