Credit Card A/c: getting MY money out
Options

I have just been given an £800+ refund to my Sainsbury's c/card following a successful Section 75 claim. 
I rarely use this card at present, though will do so again once my interest-free period on another ends in September, so I don't want to close the account. Equally, I generally spend little on credit, so this refund is going to last months!
However, I want to get that credit out and into use in my bank account. How can I do that?
If I simply withdraw it via an ATM, I'm told I will be charged interest - daft, as it's my money!
Is there another way to draw this money out? Help please!!:o

Phone them and ask for the balance to be paid to your bank account.0

Just call them and ask for the account credit to be refunded.0

Thanks to both you and Noh who gave the same advice to phone to request a withdrawal.
I was on the phone to them when they said the money had to go into the C/C account. What they didn't say was that I could then request a withdrawal!!
VERY unhelpful.....but my thanks to the MSE Forum team!!:beer:0 -
