Paypal states that it can take a while for a refund to show up on your linked bank account but it has been 12 days now, and still no refund has arrived in my bank. The refund by the vendor was issued one day after the charge. There is no one to contact at Paypal.

If you funded the original Paypal payment to the seller from your bank account or a card then once marked refunded/completed it will automatically go back to that bank account or card.
Normally it can take a few days up to a week to go back to a bank account and a bit longer for a card, Paypal say allow 30 days for a card (1 billing cycle) but its rarely that long.
(Can vary according to country though).

It was a bank account; not a card and it has been 12 days. Your reply seems rather boilerplate.
