refunded/reimbursed


Explanation:

This question has been asked here before. Please see:
http://www.proz.com/kudoz/german_to_english/marketing/263990...

Some more examples:

However, if the investigations showed that the respondent was innocent, the rent collected during the period of the restriction notice, would inevitably be refunded to the respondent, as legitimate owner of the property, with interest.

Where money back guarantees are offered, customers are entitled to a full refund within 14 days of the initial order being placed. This will be issued in the same method as originally used by the customer. Cases involving offline methods of payment will be refunded using a personal cheque or other online method.

The Director of Finance will draw up formal documented procedures for the management of any claims arising from third parties and payments in respect of losses that will not be reimbursed.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Apologies for asking the question again - for some reason that answer didn't come up when I searched for the term. However, I'm not sure that "refunded" really fits in this context as company X intended to charge the client a certain amount on the basis of these fictitious invoices (sorry, should have made that clearer in my original question) - so as far as I can work out, money is being charged rather than refunded.
