I got a real one last week
HMRC sent me a cheque saying they were pleased to give me a refund for overpayment three years ago.
They said they would send me another letter to explain the reasons for the overpayment which duly arrived
the next day.
Is it beyond them to think 'Lets put the two together and save a few pennies' ?
