Hi there, I just had a question regarding some refunds.
I have my credit card linked to my PayPal, and I used that CC through PayPal to purchase things online.
I am just wondering, I wanted to refund a game on Steam, and it says to refund to my PayPal. If I use that option, will the funds go back straight to my credit card or will it end up being put into my actual PayPal wallet?
I'd appreciate some answers on this, thanks!

If you funded the original Paypal payment to the seller from your bank account or a card then once marked refunded/completed it will automatically go back to that bank account or card.
Normally it can take a few days up to a week to go back to a bank account and a bit longer for a card, Paypal say allow 30 days for a card (1 billing cycle) but its rarely that long.
(Can vary according to country though).
