If your direct deposit has not completely finished the clearing process, then the company paying you, can take the full amount of your check back and redo the direct deposit for the correct amount.
If the direct deposit has completely finished the clearing process, then they cannot take it back out of your account. Your employer will probably deduct it from your next paycheck or you will be asked to withdrawl that amount from your account so that they can redeposit to their payroll account. |

YES. It was an error and they correct it with the bank. I know because it happened to me once. Got double paycheck and within a couple of days it was corrected. |

Yes. It happend to my wife twice. The deposit was make then there was a reverse deposit and then the correct deposit. The only problem was there were some deductions from her check to savings and loans that were made twice. All transactions were made the same day. |

Be honest...you could loss your job over a few bucks... |

yes, and you should expect them to take it back. Don't move the excess money out of the account, or you'll end up with fees from your bank. |

not from your account.
THE RIGHT THING to do is tell them. They are going to catch it and if you tell them first, you come out looking great. |

I don't think they can go in your account and just take it with out talking to you about it!
if you didn't bring this error up to HR and they notice it they could dock your next pay check!
it's best to ask why who knows maybe you got a suprise bonus so they should tell you but communication lacks in the business world! |

Depends on what you agreed to when you signed up for direct deposit. Often times, yes, its in the fine print that they have the authorization to withdraw any money that is overpaid. |

they won't take money out of your account that they already put into it, but, lookout for the next pay stub! i would definatly let them know about the situation , because if they don't notice it next time, or the next time... sooner or later they will and as fate usually has it , it will be on a week that you didn't get much pay in the first place. save the extra pay, you'll need it. |

Absolutely, and they will. Do not spend the money. |
|

|
Yes, it is not your money and hopefully you have not done something VERY stupid like spend someting that is NOT yours. |
|

|
No ,they will first ask you for the money back and if you say you already spent it they will get it from your next check... |

You would be better off setting up having the bank send it back, so you don't give clerk complete access to your account. |

they will get it back but probably off of your next pay check
I doubt they can take it out of your account |
|

|
Yes. If they catch it they will probably take it out of a future direct deposit. |
|

No, not from your account. They can however, take it out of your next check (if they notice the error). |
|

Lucas
|
no they won't if they notice it there is nothing they can do is their mistake anyway. |
