RE: tax credit manual payments

It doesn't matter which angle you look at it. It's always pear shaped when it comes to dealing with Tax Credits. I had a client who knew she was being over paid TC's so she put all the money into a savings account (interest etc). When she finally got an overpayment demand, she sent them a cheque for the full amount. Next month she gets a payment from them for the same amount of the cheque. So she sent another cheque. Same thing happens the following month and so it went on and on each month. Finally she came to see us, and we wrote to them to ask why this was happening. We never got a reply (that's a surprise), anyway the payments stopped after we sent the letter, don't know if it was coincidence or luck.
