I was overpaid for some six months a few years ago and the first I knew about what action they were taking was when they simply did not pay me at all one month... (I didn't realise I'd been overpaid, I thought it was a payrise doh !). As it was the December payroll and we get paid in the middle of the month, you can imagine how nice Christmas was that month !
