Happened to me...
I paid 4 amounts to HMRC on consecutive days with the same ref number.
I used last years ref number - which was an error on my part as it looked the same except for an 'A' at the end.
HMRC took 2 payments and rejected the other 2 and sent me a letter and 2 checks for the 2 rejected amounts and told me they had done this in the letter using the same reference number.
How they accepted payments 1 and 2 and not 3 and 4 with the same reference number AND told me thats what they had done, I will never know - the mind boggles.
