Prize money claimed from firm

7 replies

SBennS · 18/03/2023 22:32

just looking for some advice I work for a large firm and put in to the firm lottery since stating.
I think there’s a chance that I’ve been given the same prize amount twice. I claimed and signed for winnings of £100. And I was recently contacted to say I have some unclaimed funds from Christmas. I didn’t think anything of it So collected and signed.

but now I think it’s strange that both prizes was the same price. I’ve signed for both but now I’m questioning what are the chances of winning twice in one year and I wasn’t told when the first price money was from. Do I need to question this? Im a worrier by nature so I’m worried somewhere there’s been an error. And I have more winnings then what is deserved
Or am I overthinking as I haven’t won in so long. some help please.

IMO you need to get out more. HTH

if the same amount of people are always putting into the firms lottery then it’s likely the prize always will be the same. There are lots of charity lottery schemes that advertise their prizes are the same each month too. Just enjoy your winnings and ignore the snarky first response.

What's the worst case scenario? They ask for the money back? I'd not work about it.

Thnxs Im concerns are if it is incorrect I don’t want to think this was deliberate or dishinest. The more I think about it. The more I think should have questioned it

I wouldn't question it and would just assume I'd won twice. Enjoy it!

Is this fraud? Which is a sackable offence even if it was a genuine mistake

Of course, it's not fraud! You haven't done anything!
