There are times where I'm paid in error. On occasion, I'll put off accounting for a week, (or two or months). I'll deposit checks as I receive them (less frequently nowadays), and when I get around to processing the payment and I see I was paid in error, I cut a check and return to payor. I've seen the other side where someone else was paid in error, sometimes the check is done the same way, or paid by receiver, and sometimes I have to hunt for it. |
