Opodo - Refund

Hi
I've been abit of a lurker of late even though I have been registered on here.
Must say what a fantastic website, and a real eye opener.
Now heres my dilema. We are due to fly out to Cyprus on November 13th for our wedding. Returning November 27th. We booked our flights back in March through opodo, 5 Flights outbound, and inbound at a cost of £941. Last week my partner recieved a phone call from Opodo stating that BA have cancelled both the outbound and inbound flight and that we are entitled to a full refund.
Excellent I thought!!! Have subsequently booked our flights now with Easyjet, coming in at £474 for 5 tickets!!! Made a huge saving really.
My dilema now is, they have told us to expect the refund into our accounts within 2-15 Working days. As we have now took a chunk out of our holiday/wedding fund to pay for new flights, i'm panicking as i have heard that opodo have bad reviews with regards to refunds/compensation etc. I'm scared now that i won't recieve the refund and be £500 down out of our funds.
Has anybody had any similar experiences with opodo and was all good?? I just need abit of reassurance thats all.
I know its only been 5 working days so far, so theres still time. Maybe i'm just paranoid and expecting the worse lol
;)
Any advice much appreciated
