I was actually thinking this. I didn't want more than I was owed and I feel like I've lost a bit of the high ground accepting more money than I asked for.Oh I’m so happy she paid you back! We were all rooting for you
I’d transfer back the extra she paid just to point out that you actually can pay back money
Yes, I like the idea of transferring immediately, saves you the headache.I've followed this all week, so glad it's got a happy ending!
I have a friend who is useless at paying back, just forgetful but it became a bit of an issue as I'd really wind myself up and he was completely oblivious just distracted by something else
So now if one of us pays the bill and the other transfers their money whoever is transferring does it there and then to nip it in the bud
Wow that must have been quite the read haha. Thank you
)Wow that’s a lot of money, I’d ask her “are you sure it’s X amount remaining?”Ok, I’m going to totally jump on this thread as I need advice too!
Long story short, I lent my friend quite a lot of money last year. Over £2000, sent in chunks. I’ve lent her money before and she’s always paid me back. Anyway, after I lent her the money I went through something at work which meant I was on reduced pay. Never once did she offer me any money back. (This isn’t relevant but I’m clearly not over it
It is now over a year later and she’s repaid me in instalments but the amount that she says is remaining isn’t right. It’s about £150 different. I feel so awkward raising it but also, that’s a lot of money and why should I end up out of pocket? Also, she lives abroad so I sent the money via PayPal and had to pay fees which she said she would pay back and she hasn’t offered since the instalments started.
Thank you!
Could you send her screenshots of what she has paid in? I think that'd work as she could try and refute it if it is just your word, but it is much more difficult if you have the evidence there.Ok, I’m going to totally jump on this thread as I need advice too!

Please try and put your awkwardness aside because you aren't doing anything wrong asking for the right amount, I'm sure she had no qualms about taking what she needed. Send her evidence because sometimes it's just a case of people not remembering certain payments, not them being crappy. So once she can add up the numbers herself she'll be able to see for herself.Ok, I’m going to totally jump on this thread as I need advice too!

I would pull together a spreadsheet showing exactly what you paid her and when plus any fees. Then deduct each payment she paid you showing the date paid and the outstanding balance at the bottom. (Can you tell I'm an accountant?!!Ok, I’m going to totally jump on this thread as I need advice too!

) You can then send it her and ask if she agrees or can show how she has a different amount she thinks she owes?
