Unauthorised Credit Card use

Dear Sirs
In feb of this year I booked a nice little 2 night stay away for me and my partner in Cornhill-On-Tweed, I arranged this through Expedia for the 2nd and 3rd March at a Cost of £189, which I paid on my Credit card. I contacted the Hotel on 28th Feb and found that they were snowed in and they advised us not to travel, contact Expedia And arrange a different date to stay. I duly informed Expedia and was informed after they had contacted the hotel that no charges would be made, or os I thought until I checked my Credit card and they had again charged me £189. I complained and was given it back, but how can they use my card wityhout my authorisation?

They've now refunded it to you again, so all is well.
PS - Really appreciate the help here
Am I wrong about encryption of the card once used?
