Earlier this evening I was emailed a pay slip from my old job saying that I'm going to get paid x amount of money tomorrow – the same amount I've had for the past several months. However, I handed my months' notice in September and my last shift was October 13th. My first pay day was September 2017 and I was finally paid on October 21st 2018. I worked at the company for exactly 13 months and 1 day and I have had 13 payments from them. I know in my contract it said that I get paid one month in arrears, but I'm not sure if this payment is right or not, i.e. getting paid by them tomorrow. Obviously I want to make sure this money is actually mine before I think about spending it; if it isn't then I'll make sure it's returned.
Right now I'm just mega blagged. I'm probably being really dim but can anyone very quickly figure out if this is a mistake or not?

If the employer realises they can and will reclaim the money from the bank... even if its gone and you have no overdraft facility...
Knowing its an over payment means you'll have no defence against them yanking back funds

Based on that, asking them is the correct move.

I would set it aside and wait. At least 8 or 9 months, once their accounts are done for the year you're unlikely to get a recall.
Do not spend it!

I’m a reasonable person and didn’t argue the point. I wanted to end on good terms. We agreed that I do an extra shift on Tuesday and – her words – “we’ll call it quits”.
I did the extra shift, but a couple of days later I realised it might’ve been the wrong Tuesday – it should’ve been the Tuesday after.
My penultimate shift came round. My manager said, “so it’s your last shift tomorrow?”
“It is,” I replied, “But I think I came in on the wrong Tuesday.”
I wanted to be honest and hoped that my conscientious would imply that I’d be happy to work the extra day if she wanted me to.
”You did, but don’t worry about it. We’ll be fine.”
This time I was more explicit. “Are you sure? I don’t mind coming in if you’re going to be short staffed.”
”No it’s fine. We’ve got Joe in and such and such in... but in theory you do owe us 2.5 hours.”
This caught me off guard. “But we called it quits.”
In a very serious tone I was met with, “But that’s not the agreement we had.”
I was at a loss. I was trying to be reasonable and wasn’t sure what she wanted me to say. Provoked, I simply replied with what I hoped was undertoned with ‘fuck you then’, “Oh well, soz.”
Completely shut the conversation down.
I had been self employed since I was 18, so not an employer making an error.
To this day I have no idea where it came from but I sure as hell kept my mouth shut at the time and didn’t question it with my bank.
