            No I got nothing from there the only thing thing I tried to order from was the company mentioned0

            Let the bank investigate on Monday. How exactly was it taken - Direct Debit or a Debit Card payment? (The protection available varies; it also matters whether you remain in credit or were taken into overdraft.)
 Also call the bank for an update - you either need an immediate refund or ask if they can give you a temporary interest free overdraft.
 While banks will say it's a dispute with the company - if you're super confident you did not spend the 250, then you can say it was an unauthorised payment and that you'd like an immediate refund. This is covered under section 76 of the Payment Services Regulations:
 - If a payment is unauthorised, you're entitled to an immediate refund, and your bank must restore your account as if they payment had not happened (i.e. cancel any overdraft fees).
 - The bank does have the right to investigate just in case it's a fraudulent claim on your behalf
 - Immediate means as soon as practical, and at the latest by the end of the next working day. So if you speak to them again on Monday, then then would be by the end of Tuesday.
 There is very detailed guidance on pages 121 - 124 of https://www.fca.org.uk/publication/finalised-guidance/fca-approach-payment-services-electronic-money-2017.pdf
 Slightly simpler guidance in the same area is:
 https://www.fca.org.uk/consumers/unauthorised-payments-account
 https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/debt-and-money/banking/your-payment-card-was-used-without-your-permission-distance-sales/
 https://www.which.co.uk/consumer-rights/advice/how-to-complain-about-unauthorised-transactions-on-your-card
 For a temporary overdraft explain it is so you can continue to pay your direct debits until the payment taken in error is refunded, explaining that you're a vulnerable customer and won't otherwise have the funds available to pay the direct debits.

 University shoes? Maybe make a list of everything you have spent or signed up to over the last month or two and that may help jog your memory of a company that could have taken the money from an existing purchase.moonwolf128 said:https://www.rheinlands.uk/ I thought was for these at first as I tried to buy shoesRemember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.1

            I think maybe you just have to put it more firmly to the bank that this was a fraudulent transaction. I had something similar with Halifax and was refunded straight away. I'm guessing you left the bank with the impression that you're not sure whether you spent the money and you're trying to remember what you might have bought. It sounds like that's how it's coming across on here to a lot of people1

            Make a formal complaint to your bank - which bank is it and someone could help point you in the right direction.

 Just as an aside, that site looks dodgy as hell. No physical address or phone number, various different email addresses are your only option, none of the normal shipping information, plus awful trustpilot reviews confirming its overpriced tat from China (https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/rheinlands.uk)moonwolf128 said:https://www.rheinlands.uk/ I thought was for these at first as I tried to buy shoes
 You should be a lot more careful shopping online, if its not a shop you know do a bit of research.0
