How long does it take to receive a refund

i requested a refund almost immediately after I realized I purchased an app and it now says refunded but it isn’t refunded in my bank. How long does it take for the money to be returned to my bank account

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14

After you request a refund you'll receive a status update by email within 48 hours. If your request is granted, the money is returned to the payment method you used. The time it takes for the money to appear on your account or statement depends on the payment method:


- Store credit (e.g., Apple ID balance): 48 hours

- Mobile phone billing (payment through your phone service carrier): Up to 60 days

- Other payment methods (e.g., credit/debit card): Up to 30 days for it to appear on a statement.
