    Someone just gave me £50!

    2 years ago I had to setup a new bank account for a mortgage (Lloyds to get a discount). I keep the old account alive - setting up a new one is so much hassle!L

    A few months ago I got a letter saying I had not used the account for 9 months so were thinking of closing it. I transferred money in and out. I transferred money in last week.

    Today I transferred it back - and found an extra £50 in there! Paid in on the 16th April. Reference had GBS in there. Internet search revealed possible is government banking service.

    Only thing I can think of i that I am VAT registering a limited company so setup a government gateway account. I certainly did not give any bank details.

    Could the government have kept some old bank account details and transferred the money in?

    Or it could be something else different?

    I will leave the money i there a few months and see if anyone claims it. Any other suggestions?

    I imagine you won't be getting your magazine through this month. Have you been writing letters to them again?

        Government Bastard Subsidy ?
        Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

        No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.
