If a person is employed by a company for a short period of time, but after he or she has left the particualar company they continue to pay them a small wage in to there bank account on a weekly basis.This goes on for a period of a year and a half. The ex-employee calls the company during this time and tries to bring this to there attention but they continue to lodge money into the persons bank account. The ex-employee contacts the Revenue commissioners for a list of there employers for the last 3 years, But the company that has been paying money into there account does no show up on the Revenue Commissioners files. So the Revenue Commissioners has no knowledge what so ever of this person ever working for the Company in question or recieving any P.A.Y.E
So the Company in question then Contacts the ex-employee after a year and a half of overseeing there mistake to high light there error and requests the funds to be returned.
Obviously the ex-employee wouldn't be in this situation if it wasn't for there incompetence.
Who is in the right in this situation? The ex-employee is willing to take have the responsibility and return half the money. Is this legal?
All information would be grateful.
