Anyway, why refund two days later? Just letting the money fully come out of your account? Wednesday 10pm here so I'll refund on Monday I guess.
In OP’s case, the new membership year starts in 11 hours that’s why I said refund two days later. The refunded miles will then be treated as “earn” in the new membership year and never expire again under the new system.
If your miles are not expiring shortly, you should refund only after the new membership year started. Time should use HKG time.
