Bank Repayment Pending - Community Forum (2024)

Hello Rick86,
It can take up to ten working days for a repayment to be issued.
Unless it has been selected for additional security checks which can take longer.
Thankyou

I submitted my tax return in november.After 2-3 months i saw my repayment got in “bank repayment pending”.I called hmrc on february and they told it will be dealt before 19 april.I called them yesterday and told me to wait one more day.Today i called again and they tell me that I probably should wait 8 more weeks.Why is that?

Hi my page says repayment pending what dose that mean

Why does it sound like we are all in the same boat at these hard times! Why are hmrc doing this considering they know our circ*mstances during this pandemic. I have submitted my return on the 6th of april and my funds was in my online account to withdraw and now are bank payment pending? When I speak to someone in hmrc all I get is its going through extra security check please don't contact us until 3rd of June! How frustrating! I could really do with this money to help with some of my bills I was unable to cover due to reduced work! I'm sorry I know there's alot of us struggling and we depend on that money but I think hmrc are really taking their time in issuing out payments!

I managed to get on to Webchat after a few weeks - glory be! My adviser was quite adamant that "bank repayment pending", which was the message I had been receiving for many weeks. simply meant that security checks were being done, and the delay was quite normal in these Covid times.Is there anything else ~I can do.

Bank repayment pending since April, not received any letter and not been able to get through to support lines or online agents. Can anyone advise ?

HiI had a repayment sent back to HMRC because my bank had frozen my account The money was returned back to my account and have had to ask for the repayment againHow long will it take to be paidThanks

My account has been on bank repayment pending for 6 weeks, I have just signed in and was asked for I.d, passport and credit file info. All went through and was accepted. Does that mean I have passed security checks and money will now be released? Thanks.

Hi,"HiI had a repayment sent back to HMRC because my bank had frozen my accountThe money was returned back to my account and have had to ask for the repayment againHow long will it take to be paidThanks"Soon will be 2 years im waiting,with similar problem.Numerous chats,paper letter.Loads of promises "will be sorted asap".What should i do?

Hi,Contacted SA department 5-6 times12/04/2021"yes we are aware the repayment has been rejected by your bank we send off a referral to look into this "12/05/2021"I send paper letter half year ago,and yr colleague confirmed you received ithow i can contact your security team?I can see the letter you have previously sent. Unfortunately our security teams can't be contacted directly."10/06/2021"This type of situation is usually straight forward but unfortunately we cannot deal with your enquiry over webchat. We need to send another referral for this to be urgently looked into."So my question stays the same .What should i do next? Cant be sorted by webchat, security teams cant be contacted directly,"10/06/2021can i even call somewhereJ:5:09PMany departament*****5:10PMI'm sorry but I don't know why this is taking so long. I will make sure to sent another referral to the relevant department who will check there payment."

Thats all what im hearing. :( double standards. When ppl owe money HMRC quick to fine them

Can anyone give me any advice? I submitted my tax return on the 6th April 2021 then I amended it on the 24th July 2021 and iv still not received what I'm owed and it's still saying repayment pending to this day. I keep phoning and all they do is put in a referral then when that date comes they out another referral in I'm still waiting for my money now. Everything I call they can't tell me anything it's disgusting how they have been when people are struggling like myself at the minute!!!
