A customer visits the bank to inquire about a £34.55 payment that was mistakenly taken from their account. The bank cashier looks up the customer's account and sees that the payment was for a water bill to the Anglian Water Company. After further discussion, it is determined that the customer had signed up for monthly direct debit payments for their water bill, rather than the quarterly payments they thought. The cashier suggests contacting the water company to clarify the payment arrangement.

Yes, I have a problem with my account. You What seems to be the problem? Cashier Well, some money has been paid out of my bank account by mistake. You Ok. Could you tell me your account number and I will have a look for you. Cashier Oh………..here it is. My account number is 0034 0099 667723200. You Are you Miss Samantha Smith? Cashier Yes I am. You Do you have some identification with you please? Cashier I have my passport. Is that OK? You Yes, that’s fine. Now let me see. Cashier It was for £34.55. I don’t remember spending that money. You Ah, yes I can see it. It was paid on the 2nd January and it looks like Cashier a water bill. It was to Anglian Water Company. I thought my water bill wasn‘t due for another three months. You I will check how often you pay your water bill. Cashier I am sure it was every 3 months. You No. By the look of your account, you are paying your water bill monthly. Cashier I don’t remember signing anything for that. You Well, it certainly seems to have been set up on a direct debit for every Cashier month. How can I check this? You I think the best thing to do is contact the water company and see how Cashier you’ve arranged to pay. Well, I haven’t been in my flat very long so maybe I did sign to have it You paid each month. Is there anything else I can help you with today? Cashier Can I withdraw some money while I’m here? You Of course, how much would you like...........? etc……… Cashier You have just won some money on the lottery and you want to put it in the bank. Ask the cashier to open an account for you and ask which will be the best bank account (interest rates, easy access to your money etc.). Tell her what you intend doing with the money.
