Hey guys,
Hey guys,
I just called Apple about a typo they had when I ordered a MacBook, and they are going to give me a $50 credit back to my debit card.
How long does it usually take for a credit/refund to show up on a debit or credit card? Thanks!

It generally takes 5-7 business days for a credit to actually post.

It’s electronically transmitted, so it shows up as soon as the bank gets it, or the next morning at worst. The question is, how long will it take Apple to send it?

I know it isn’t instant. It generally takes 2 to 3 days. 5 to 7 if you are dealing with a company who drags their feet.

Typically 2-3 business days if done during the week…Mon-Fri…if done on the weekend 3-5 days because weekends aren’t considered business days for most companies……so with that said if they processed the refund today then expect it Friday (2 days) but Monday (3rd business day) at the very latest….
