refund problem

i am told by apple i have been refunded to my purchase method for an app i accidentally purchased. its not in my bank, not in a credit note either. there is no way of letting them know via email and if you go to ‘report a problem’ i cant click on the app in question because they say i have already been refunded for it. I want my money and dont know who to contact

According to Apple:

If your refund is approved, the funds are applied to the same payment method that you used to buy the item.


Here's how long it takes for a refund to appear on your account or statement:


Store credit—It might take up to 48 hours to see the refund in your Apple ID balance.


Mobile phone billing—It might take up to 60 days for the statement to show the refund. Processing time might be affected by your carrier. You can contact your carrier for an update.


All other payment methods—It might take up to 30 days for the statement to show the refund. If you don't see the refund after 30 days, contact your financial institution.
