Considering it's common in Europe and plenty of other places outside North America for bank account numbers to be on company letterhead and publicly-accessible websites, yeah, I would. And in North America you hand your bank details over to everyone you write a check to.
"Roaming SIMs" are usually a terrible deal, but if they're offering a refund via PayPal or bank transfer I fail to see what the issue is here.
