Multiple Cards Refund?

If I purchase an UA award ticket using card A with tax $100. Later, I change it and pay the tax difference $50 with card B.

if I cannot make the trip and ask for the tax refund $150, how would it be distributed? $150 to card A (original payment), card B (add collection) or $100 to A and $50 to B?

I found a similar thread, but it was 10+ years ago for revenue tickets and all were speculations. Are there any recent first hand experiences?

Your refund will be credited back to your original form of payment
so, $100 to A and $50 to B
Each credit card is considered a different payment.

I recently cancelled a ticket where I paid with multiple cards, and 100% of the refund went back to the most recent card used. So it's either YMMV, or the policy is in flux.

In my experience, the most recent card gets the full refund.

Interesting.
Original purchase a corporate card and upgrade on personal, the full value on canceling would go to the personal card???

I'm sure bosses would find that humorous.

Bumping a super old thread.

Same question - what happens if you refund a ticket where initially Card A was used and then Card B was used for the add collect on making a change? Where does the refund go?

Any recent experiences?
