HI PayPal comm
I recently filled a dispute against Gearbest for failing to deliver my order after the estimated shipping time has expired. Contacted PayPal and I received my full refund, however the money isn't showing on my bank statement and the refund was received on 22 September, what might be the reason for that?

If you funded the original Paypal payment to the seller with a card then it won't go back to your paypal balance.
Once marked as completed it will automatically go back to your card. Paypal say allow 30 days but I have never waited longer than a week for mine, however that depends a lot on what country you are in.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
