    Out of interest, why do you need a Switch card rather than a Visa Delta one?

    Agreed. Switch and Visa Debit are both widely accepted in the UK, but worldwide Visa is best.

    How strange? That would have to be done as a chargeback because its a refund rather than a purchase I would have thought.

    Either way, it only takes a week or so to open up an account so its hardly the end of the word (unless you need the money now that is.).

    DEBIT Cards not Credit.

    I never deposited a penny so can't get a refund :)
