If you ended up £7 up from the reversal, you wouldnt be on the phone to them asking them to keep it would you? and as said, the merchant still gets/loses 750 local currency so no benefit by waiting.

All part of foreign currency exchange and refunds/reversals, sadly. Sometimes you can be up, others down. Chalk it up to experience and be thankful it wasnt a bigger amount.

I guess I wouldn't! Afterall I went to Turkey to take advantage of their currency crashing :A

Alas!

But yes, in the grand scheme of things £7 is nothing major - thank you for your advice! Thankfully it hasn't happened before, so it probably won't be happening all too often.

Thanks all.

Moving on...
