    The debt doesn't disappear off your staatemnt. The refund adds the same amount as a credit  on your card account .
    It says - £50 train line (who i brought the tickets from) then on the 18th + £50 trainline.
    I hope my bank sorts it when i get my next statement. I am quite panicking over it.
    So that minus is you being charged for the ticket.
    The plus is the refund to your account.
    So -50 +50 = 0     (the result is no charge)

    Of course, if you had a statement prepared between 2nd and 18th September then the +£50 refund will not appear on the statement.  Do you normally pay your statement by DD in full or a lesser amount or do you initiate payment each time?
    I initiate the payment every time. I thought there would be no charge with the refund but it still shows as i owe £50 charge (i just hope it gets sorted)

    Stop panicking (I know, easier said than done!). 

    There's nothing for your bank to 'sort'. The refund has already appeared on your statement on the 18th (+£50), so you know you've been refunded. 


    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!
