Repaying Tax Credit Overpayments by Bank Giro

If your bank or building society offers the Bank Giro service you can make payment at your own bank branch by cheque or cash.

If paying this way please:

  • take your payslip to your own bank branch (other banks may refuse to accept it or may charge you for this service)
  • make cheques payable to ‘HM Revenue & Customs only’

We treat any payment made by Bank Giro as electronic.

To allow for possible delays in bank processing (for which we are not responsible) we advise you not to leave payment until the last day. We advise you to allow at least three bank working days for it to reach us (bank working days are Monday to Friday excluding bank holidays).
