(Of course if you can find a Lawyer to defend you that takes Credit Cards and/or Gives Miles???)

Completely agree. To the OP: If this was feasible, it wouldn't be illegal. But processing refunds where they are not due is not legal. For example, if your company bought a chair and you paid for it on your companies credit card, but you decided you didn't like the chair and want to pocket the cash. You can then refund the money to your own credit card. This is just 1 example of why money has to be refunded in the
original form of payment not to mention the 1,000 other logistical issues.
