Foreign refunds

Hello,
I had a refund processed to my debit card last Thursday but have still not recieved the money back in to my account. Does anyone know how long this normally takes as I am getting worried that it might not work.

Thanks:D

    It may be worth ringing your bank, foreign currency refunds do take quite a bit longer to come through and you have to be careful that they don't penalise you in exchange fees refunding a different amount to the initial transaction because of the handling fees. I have had to wait 14 days or so for foreign refunds to come through before but it does vary
