pre paid credit card mess please help...

I had used a pre payed credit cards to pay the 3.00 extra on a item I had bought the rest of the 80.00 was in vouchers with john lewis, there were issues and a faulty item so was given a 35.00 goodwill gesture on top and the item was returned, so as they couldnt give me back vouchers they put it on my card. I also returned another item for 8.00 paid for with vouchers which was also put back on my card..

I then spent 100 on a blender from ebay, and a little extra on a tumble from john lewis and a couple of little bits from amazon, so now only 27.00 left on card, went to check the balence and was told to contact the (pre paid master card idt card) as my account has been frozen. They have now told me that Iam not alound to have the orignal money from john lewis put on a credit card as it wasnt spent from the card, so I should contact john lewis and tell them to take it all back!!!! and i have to cancel all the orders i made using that money and it must be returned to card to be then given back to john lewis.

The problem is its all been spent already.....:eek: the payment has already been procesed by john lewis and the paypall payment is showing complete.
I called John and they said as its showing no problems the payment went through they can not take any money back from my credit card,
my blender is due to arrive on wednesday and tumble dryer on friday...

So now ive been crying my eyes out, I dont know what to do and if iam gonna be in big trouble if I just throw the card away...and lose the 27.00 seems easier than what they are asking me to do....!!!
please help, thank you xxxxx

It is much easier to see other people's failings than our own.
