    Probably - why are you doubting it? What sort of account, and what sort of payment?

    All depends.
    Too little information to make a decent answer.

    Remember if bank refund you and the retailer contests it as a genuine payment. Either the bank will redebit you or the retailer will be looking at taking you to court.

    Fraudulent transaction? Chargeback, S75 claim? Give us a clue...
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Definitely contender for the 'least information given' post of 2021. 
    Come on, if you want some definitive answers you really need to elaborate.
