Expecting a refund to closed account

the_sulphur_man

Hello,

Around two months ago I applied for a refund for some train tickets. One month ago I chased them up, but still haven't received it. Today, I have chased them up again and have now been told it will be refunded to my account in the coming days.

However I have recently switched banks, and two weeks ago I reached the stage where I could close my old current account. I told the train company this, and they say that I can walk into my old bank in a week's time, and advise them of my new account details to forward the money on.

Personally I don't believe this! I'd have thought the money would just bounce back to the train company?! Any thoughts??

Thanks!

it may bounce and go back to them
go into branch with ID and they could transfer to your new account
