600 hundrend more pound has just appeared in my bank account, ive ruled out nearly every source it could of originated from, what do u think i should do.
A/ Leave it in there for a few weeks/months
b/ spend it outright and get new technics decks
c/ transfer it to another backaccount, and hope they dont look at my account, and realise there has been an error, but sit on it incase.

Could you even get in trouble for trying to take advantage of their error? Even in the case that you could just hold to the fact that you didn't think anything was wrong. Banks have a lot of money, I wouldn't feel very bad for taking a little.

if i were you, i'd withdraw all money from the bank account, close it, change my name, move to a different country, always watch my back, not walk in dark alleys, lock my doors behind me, and never ever speak to anyone about this again.

I'd go with C.. just cause if they do reconcile their accounts at the end of the month or whenever and catch the mistake, they'll definitely make you pay it back.

i would wait a bit. my mom received a check for $1500 after she finished a car lease. she didnt know what it was for so she called them up, just to be sure and they said it was hers. but then a few months later they realised the mistake and made her pay it back as a loan. there was no record of the phone call she had made.
just wait and see it they find the mistake.

call them and record the call.. and make sure to ask the name and employee id # of who you are talking to.

id say you should wait, i mean it the impulsive way if you just take it out and spend it all...banks will make you pay even though it's their mistake...i'd say, wait for a week then if the money is still there, then go on a shopping spree
