Hello everyone, Nice to meet you. This is my first post here. I wonder if anyone is knowledgeable (or experienced) enough to answer my question, please? Early this year 2015, we were suddenly contacted by our bank, Banque Populaire, demanding out of the blue that we pay back 500+ euro. Apparently, in 2006 they made a mistake by paying this amount wrongly twice into our account (we never even noticed!) Now they send us threatening letters promising to take us to court if we don't pay it back. My question is, do you think the statute of limitations applies in this case and do they have a claim after all these years? As far as I know, the statute of limitations in case of commercial debts is 5 years in France and this isn't a debt even but their very own mistake. We didn't even know we had the money! [8-)] Thank you very much! Irene
