on Thursday I cleaned a one off and left a bill for £15, when I looked at my online banking on Friday I saw that she had transfered £150 into my account, I called round later on Friday, as no one was in I left a note saying could she contact me as I had been over paid, I haven't heard any more from her.
should I try again or just wait and see what she does.
-
I would send her a cheque for £135.
-
say no more....
-
I wouldn't send the cheque just yet.
Try a couple more times to contact them first.
It'd be god to have the conversation. Customer is more likely to recommend you as an honest WC.
Also, a one off clean. Was it end of tenancy? Board up? Might want to contact the letting agent. If so, it gives a chance to speak to the lettors who will also know you're honest.

Tell ye what mate, I'd never use your services! >:(
-
I would just put the money to one side and wait for a response, give it a couple of month then spend it :-X

Ditto, assuming the bank is not able to send the excess money back to where it came from.
-
you contacted her...end of. You could have just said, you never noticed that it was the wrong amount. She will contact you

Maybe she's gone away for the weekend.
Get back in touch first thing Monday....she'll soon be in touch when she realises what she's done.

Dump and replace with two more.
£300 - £30 loooooooooooovely.

Agree with JD for once. It is dishonest.

I agree with the sentiment.
But likening the OP to a thief isn't the same.

Dirty dont you think its one of those questions that really doesnt

I don't think he was asking whether he should return it or not.
I took it as he had already decided to. And rightly so.
But he had got no response from his initial contact so how far should he go?
There will be a limit.

I would be on the doorstep handing over cash if necessary,dont see
where there is a limit on returning what is not yours

I don't feel I can argue as I don't know the circumstances but yeah, I'd do the same.
But, I thought it could've been an EOT clean.
If they've moved then it's down to chasing the lettors. Who probably wouldn't give the new address.
The simplest thing to do would be to make a payment BACS of £135 to the account the £150 came from.
But, never to miss an opportunity for a bit of advertising, I was saying to try and let the lettors know that that was what he was trying to do.
Some people have taken the OP as a git who was looking for justification in keeping the pennies.
I didn't. I don't know what his intent was though, just saying how I read.

I get what your saying, and maybe i have a pessimistic mind but the topic title is 'should i do anymore?' Not 'what should i try next?'
Suggesting intent in keeping the money?
If i'm wrong in I disagreeumption*, i apologise to the op
Edit: *my a55umption (filter correction lol)

I wouldn't be handing over cash when they paid by bank transfer. Try explaining that to the tax man.
-
if I had wanted to keep the money, I wouldn't have called back to the house or left a note telling them that they had over paid me.
my thoughts are that I will give them 2 weeks to get in touch in case they have gone on holiday or realised their mistake and then go knocking again.
I have no intention of keeping money that does not belong to me.

customer finally got in touch this afternoon, her husband had made the payment so she was still unaware of what happened.
payment has been returned and customer happy with my honesty.

Happened to me a while ago. Sent me £300 instead of £15. She realised and called me before I noticed.
