They refund in the same format the purchase was made

If you read the message from the screen shot it says in the form of an "Amazon gift card".

Yes, which strongly suggests the initial purchase was via Amazon gift card.

He then got an additional $5 amount, doubling what he "spent."

This post is rage bait over nothing consequential.

This is some clarification we need. Is this an original post?

It wasn't a refund.
