Did you get to try your laptop on in Screwfix?

By the way, I'm ignoring you ;)
I got this Chrome hooks. Uncomfortable fitted to ones lap so I screwed them to the wall.

I don't understand what yiou think you are gaining here?

Unless your card works in a very odd way, a debit followed by an almost immediate refund will result in nothing, as both will hit your accont within minutes of each other. The credit doesn't get applied before the debit.

On my card lets say a payment of £650 is due on the 14th of month.
Any refund to the card upto 14th gets classed as a receipt. So in the case of that £50 watch having been refunded on or before the 14th only the payment taken by direct debit would be £600 with the other £50 due deferred to the following months payment.

Ah. If your card works that way, then it makes sense.

Pretty sure mine doesn't, though it isn't all that often I've had refunds. I'll have to check next time I get one.
