Can i return something bought with a debit card and get cash back?

Asked by fau 2 months ago, 7 answers.

So last week my boyfriend bought me something using his debit card. I want to to return it because it's that the right kind.
Will I still be able to return it and get cash back?

Does your boyfriend know that you are returning it?

They should give you the cash back.

Uhm no. I haven't told him yet.
I'd ask him to come with me, but he's in another statee right now.

No, if you do a return it will go right back on his card, however if you ask for store credit instead of getting your money back they should give you a card for the same value of the item to use in their store.

As long as you have the receit most places give cash back if you don't all you will get is store credit.

Unfortunately most stores will return the money back to the way it was purchased with. Cash with cash, debit /credit cards will have the money returned to the card account it was purchased with.

When you return the item, it will be refunded to your boyfriends card. I know this because my business partner sets up and manages merchant card services for businesses. The refund process I mentioned is a standard in the merchant card business.

Sorry. If you buy with a card, the money goes back to the card... No cash.

NO
You can exchange it, and most stores will let you have store credit, but almost no store will give you cash. Instead they will issue a credit on the debit card.

Good Luck!!

every store I go to will give cashback for a debit purchase. I always do, since it's the same thing as cash. They even ask.
