A point I can relate to and picked up by luck. A while back I was having a bit of a beef on how much we were spending on food shopping. So I decided to trawl though the bank statements. For one week it added up to £400. I then queried this with the "Boss" who spends all the money
She picked up a debit card payment to Sainsburys for £150 which did not ring true. We queried this with the bank and they said that Sainsburys had put a note against the debit saying it should of been debited 5 months 3 weeks earlier.
Many years ago we probably would of done a weekly shop of this amount. However for the past 2 years we shopped at a couple of stores and the each amount is rarely over £60.
The bank gave Sainsburys 6 weeks to prove the debit with a signed reciept or refund the money. Needless to say I got a refund.
