Refund.

[DC87_]

Hiya all, I received a refund through PayPal due to unauthorised activity. I'm not sure what happened but it looks like my account was hacked and someone purchased really hideous trainers that were insanely expensive. My question is, how long does it take for the refund to go into your bank account? Because I've been charged for the transaction which has left me broke for Christmas. Worst time of the year to hack someone if you ask me 😞

Issued refunds are returned to original funding source. Arrival times may vary:  

- Bank payments, 3-5 or 5-7 days, depending on your bank. 

- Cards, about a week, up to 30 days depending on your issuing card. 

- PayPal balance, fairly instant. 

- Split payments between PayPal balance and card/bank, see above.

Can you elaborate on the "returned to original funding source"? This appears on the refund but I'm not sure what it means.
