Transferred money from business account to personal account but got sort code wrong. Dont ask me how.
So payment never arrived (as expected). Spoke to bank and luckily, the sort code I entered is an invalid one so it should be bounced back. Also, checked using online checker and the sort code/acc no combo is invalid.
Bit worrying though if it had been a valid account no. I always thought the account name was checked too to make sure it matched (to stop stupid people like me)?
Seems a bit too easy for dull people to screw it up....
Lucky this time because it looks like I've just got to wait for the money to be bounced back..
