i have spoken to my bank about this....if i report it as a double charge then that means the merchant has my card details & as far as the bank is concerned they can use it again....they will therefore cancel the card & issue a new one....my card number will remain the same but the expiry date & cvv code will change....it is the policy of the bank....
OP, not sure why your bank is giving you the run around, perhaps call another agent?

I've disputed charges (this is a dispute, not a fraud case) many times on over 4 cards with 3 different banks, all just simply open a dispute file, refund my money, and no other changes to my account.
