I never got the money back for a refund

I accidentally purchased a subscription for an app I was checking out by complete accident, it basically bought itself before I could click no, which I immediately went to get a refund. I waited for it to say if it was approved, which it did but I never got the money I spent. It was store credit and it hasn’t been returned at all and it’s been almost a month.

We don't know if the unintended purchase was for one of Apple's subscriptions,

or a purchase from a third-party provider ... or maybe an "in-app" purchase.

If needed: More Info: About purchases not billed through the App Store or the App Store’s In-App Purchase system
