Accidentally purchased an Apple Store voucher instead of an iTunes one.

I accidentally bought an Apple store card instead of an iTunes card. On contacting Apple support I found out it cant be refunded. Is there a way to trade one for an iTunes card. It's a UK store card worth 25 GBP.

iPhone XS Max, iOS 15

When redeeming a gift card, the amount will be credited to your (1) Apple ID balance and (2) you need to set your Apple ID balance as your default payment.
