Why does it take so long for a company I bought something from to refund me? They say it can take up to 10 working days. Why can’t it be paid back immediately as quick as I paid them for the original order?

Question

It was an item that was never in stock to begin. They weren’t sure how I managed to place the order. I paid with a straight bank transfer, no debt or credit.

Don’t buy things directly with your bank account. There is no security. All somebody needs to debit your account is the routing number and account number and maybe your name. And now they have it. Do you really want anybody to have that info? What happens if they get hacked? Your account could be drained. Use a credit card or PayPal. At least a debit card usually has a pin. If i were you I’d get a new bank account now that you’ve done this.
