The employer's right to debit your account, if it's direct deposit, depends upon the paperwork that was signed and exists between you and your bank and your employer. You have to check that first. Often, the agreement provides that if an overpayment is made by someone to a direct deposit account, they can have the amount corrected by a deduction. As long as you ended up with the correct amount in the end, there should be no problem.
