    I applied for mine June 5th and it hit my credit card this week. Took about ten days or so (although as I was on another holiday i'd given up checking) after I got the email to say it was finally on its way.

    I really wouldt start moaning yet, its not even been 10 working days.
  • I have just received an email from EasyJet to say my refund is in its way, I paid by credit card so this is where it will be refunded back to! What is the best way to get the refund from your credit card, would I have to contact them and ask for it to be transferred to my current account or would I be able to draw it out of my credit card account I’m cash. Has any one experienced this, would be grateful for suggestions

    That's really more of a question for the credit card board rather than latching onto someone else's EasyJet thread, but contact your card company and ask for a credit balance refund, in order to access the funds without paying cash withdrawal charges.

    If you have a credit balance on your card you can ask your credit card company to reimburse you or you can leave it there for future purchases.

    Of course, the assumption here is the refund puts the credit card into credit.

    The email never said 10 working days.
    "The total refund should show as available funds within the next 10 days."
