This is the protection mechanism exactly for cases like this one. for credit cards maybe, But not a debit card as far as I know. Besides the bank already told him to go back to the hotel for a refund! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chargeback is a common mechanism for Visa/Mastercard. I understand that Thai bank clerks may be lazy. You just have to be persistent.

As said in the OP the bank told him o go get his refund from the hotel. So either the bank can't be bothered or they cannot do a charge back.

I would contact the bank call center or even Visa/Mastercard hotline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't use 'give card details, but pay later' option anymore. Can give card details, but only credit card. That way, if you dispute the charge the credit card company will help you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the way you write with your double negatives in sentences. But then I guess you're not English yourself or you would know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
