Balance transfer to closed account by accident

Becky2889

Hello 

I opened a MBNA credit card and thought the initial balance transfer I had done to a Barclaycard and Halifax card had not gone through. 

I then applied for a transfer again for a second time to a Barclaycard and Halifax card. 

All 4 then went through and were duplicated

I have contacted Barclaycard and they have recalled the payment back to my current account to pay into my new MBNA Interest free account 

however I hadn’t realised when I applied the second time I had applied for the balance transfer to a closed account of a previous card in Halifax by accident 

Halifax said they can’t do anything their end because the account is closed 

MBNA are saying I have to wait for it to “bounce back” however this application was on the 12th and I have been told 48-72hrs for it to be bounced back to my card 

I am very anxious and worried that this money is “lost” somewhere now and not entirely sure how to check its definitely going to be refunded back into my card 

I am going to contact MBNA today and ask them if they can see it anywhere 

has any one had experience of this?

Yes, it bounced back after about 3 working days

So hopefully it should bounce back today then? 

Thanks for answering 

I feel so silly 🤦🏻‍♀️
