Will A Credit Card Refund To My Old Card Be ...

automatically credited to my new one?
I booked with my old card last year. In the meantime I have had a new card issued and was told to destroy my old one.
I think it will automatically appear on my new on. Am I correct?
Thanks folks. xx

Unless anything has changed since my retirement, the refund will be made to the old card number and the bank will apply to the new one. Any Companies where you have the old number registered will reject any debit transactions until you update your records with them

In the past I had something similar to what you are describing and it was explained to me that the two card numbers relate to the self same account and while post-switch dated debits will be flagged/queried, refunds will go through because they relate to an already acknowledged transaction. However, it would be advisable for you to check with your provider.
Polly I destroyed it when I got the new one, middle of last year.
All the usual sites I use for shopping, groceries etc I put the new details on when I received the new card.
But this refund is for a one off purchase of tickets for an opera which they have cancelled, not me, and have refunded to the original card number.
So as nobody really seems sure, I shall wait a few days and see. I have a feeling it will go through without a problem but I may be wrong.
I think Karl's answer is the nearest. I'll let you know what happens. Thank you all. xx
