a major high st bank (think annoying ads) have paid me £5000 in error into my current account, which is with a different bank.
I immediately agreed to pay the money back and fully intended to do so as I know its not really mine.
They have given me the wrong transfer details THREE TIMES so I have been unable to complete the transfer. I have written evidence of this. I have written to them with details of this but they lost the letter and are now threatening me with legal action and credit blacklisting.
There are loads of other shenanigans which I won't bore you with but I think I have a reasonable amount of evidence that they have been incompetent.
I'm now fed up and want to keep the money or at least have some compensation for the ridiculous amount of time I have spent on this (numerous trips to bank/calls etc)
Do I have a case?!
all round if I get to keep the funds!
