Overpayments: Has anyone paid Angard back?

Post by cheshirecat1966 »

I have had a couple of letters from Angard requesting me to send a cheque to them as I have been overpaid. I sent them emails back as they had cocked up my hours (even though I probably owe them a couple of hundred quid!)

Has anybody repaid anything?

Cheers

:sad: Hi - I'm afriad they have sent me a p45 whilst still working !! i have gained 2 payroll numbers.
They have sent 3 weekly 1p wage slips taking my holiday pay out and my hours worked.
Today i look in my bank account and surprise surprise no money ! They owe me 38 hrs and 40 mins.
It just beggars belief - i have worked as a postman and as a casual for many years and angard are fxcking useless.

Hi,
I received a statement saying I had been overpayed, which I ignored.
Then the week after I received a payslip AND another statement. Someone (probably not Angard as I think RM is involved directly now) actually worked out what pay I should have been paid, gave me a tax refund (I didn't ask for one) and then clawed back the "overpayment".
So, I think I'm all square now - just a P45 to go, then I can wash my hands of the whole affair!

recieved a statement from angard today. doesnot show anything under "payments". but on "deductions" there is a - figure on income tax, and a + figure on net deduction. my total deductions is a - figure. they have then turned that into a + figure for my net pay

Angard rang me about a week ago. got paid £524 for a weeks work at minimum wage + 6 hours overtime! Got offered by another agency a better job with better hours and a 3 month contract so I took it.
Collected my £350 voucher as not been paid so i thought jobs a good un! Got £175 a week later so i thought theres no way I can keep all this without paying some back.

Spoke to a friend who works at GMB union and she says you shouldnt have to pay a penny back as the £350 voucher didnt state hours worked or anything?

Just keeping money in bank to save on overdraft cost.

Ps Just got back from pub so not sober!!!

If they pursue me for what they say I owe them, I shall simply present them for an itemised bill for bank charges, phone calls, Internet charges and my own self-employed time for chasing them up and I'm sure it will come to exactly the same amount as they say I owe.

Juuuuuust try it Angard! :left:
