Bank statement question?

Question

I was looking at my online bank statement - money has been paid in and i have no idea who from. Under the column that usually has DEB for example, it says TFR and the details say f/flow followed by some numbers. Does anyone have any idea what this could be? I know people will say ask my bank but I just wanted to find out if anyone knows what it is first.

Answer 1

Its an internet transfer of funds and the numbers are the other persons account number. If you don't know the number you should ask the bank

Answer 2

All i did was google what you said but check if this makes any sense to you.

Answer 3

tfr means transfer & f/flow is short for fundsflow, which is usually used when a CHAPS payment comes in. The numbers will be the reference for this payment. Your bank will be able to tell you where this comes from.

CHAPS payments are often used for house sales etc, solicitors often use this method of payment as it is a same day transfer from any bank.

Call your bank & quote the reference number.

Answer 4

TFR means transfer, check with your bank if you do not know the source, its imperative you do so .

It may be case you have been paid back monies where your have paid too much over a long time on your direct debits to water companies or any one else.

Good luck.
