Question regarding international payment

hivez

Hello, I am not quite sure if this is the right place to ask this question however I figured some will have more knowledge than me on this subject,

I recently recived an international payment for an item, the buyer paid from australia using my BIC/SWIFT details. At first the buyer did the transfer wrong and it flagged up some concern from me, however the buyer then successfully paid the money and it has been showing in my account for 2 days.

My main question is, now the payment has been made into my account, can the buyer do any kind of reveral on this payment? I am told by several friends once an international payment of such has been made, cleared into your account it can never be reversed regardless of the payee`s instructions to do so.

I have however been told by another friend it could be possible for the buyer to reverse the account by saying it was made in error. I find it hard to believe but I do not want to post the item and then the payment be reversed.

Thanks for any responces or help in advance.
