Refund time for cancelled app subscription?

I recently purchased an app subscription by mistake and I requested apple to give me a refund


Today I checked the status of my request and it said that it has been accepted and that they returned my money back


I know that it takes some days for the money to be shown at my bank account

Do I just have to wait? Will the money certainly return to me?
