Working in customer service, I think my favourite line has to be “you can take the money straight away so you can refund me straight away” 🥱Yeah, retailers don’t get your money straight away either. It might leave your account right away but will show as pending for a couple of days.Likewise, when a refund is made, it’ll leave the seller right away but won’t show up in your account until 3-5 working days have passed as that is how banking works.3

Russ.
Both the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 basically allow traders up to 14 days in which to pay refunds.

Email from Paypal , Refund in progress.
Thank you for all the help and advice.2 -
Just a follow up on this.
After phoning the company on Saturday was told to reject the package and a refund would be made, on Sunday email that package had been dispatched, phone again on Sunday and again refund would be made and it has BUT!!! package arrived today after ordering a week ago Thursday to Thursday (remember this was a delicate plant) left at front door without a chance to refuse it. Think images show why this was.
