Long story short. Ex employer treated me very poorly. Discrimination, bullying, unlawful deductions from wages. Raised a grievance some were upheld some weren't. Appealed, yet to hear the final outcome.
They have paid me money and sent me a wage slip saying it reflects some monies that were unpaid. They had already reimbursed me for unlawful deductions and it is looking likely that they have paid me this money twice in error.
The problem is, I was expecting money into my account the day this was paid and I have used it to pay nursery fees. As it has materialised the money I was expecting didn't come in and what had actually come in was this payment.
What do I do? Do I contact them and tell them I realised once it had been used that it may have been paid in error and offer some kind of payment plan? Do I wait and see if they notice and contact me? I personally was going to go with the first but 3 other people (who are normally very honest people) have said basically fuck them. Leave them to sort it out.
