Thanks for the feedback, spreadsheets checked sorry nobody else noticed but it is clear that the card balance does not change following a refund. it remains as before and as posted you can choose to give back your refund to be where you should be or pay it at a high interest rate over time. your £500 original payment not going to your card has racked up £600 extra of interest on your card account.

The banks £600 interest is kept on the balance, despite it being caused by PPI it should n

Hi Reclaimed PPI from Barclaycard never asked for it or knew of it, in a nutshell card balance was £1500 without PPI should have been £400, received a payout of £1100 on my £495 paid to PPI. However this payout was for the interest of around £1100 that should never had accrued but for PPI. money I had to pay extra, so got this back all is well. However my card balance stays at £1500 so they can snatch it all straight back and in effect I am duty bound to pay it all again at a high rate of interest. With this redress principle are the Banks actually paying anything back at a
