Question

Recording refund from bank towards a credit card in the negative

I paid off a credit card and the balance was set to zero. Then a month later one of the merchants gave us a credit for the shipping charges that went back to the credit card that was on file setting the credit card to a negative value. That card is barely used and the bank finally decide to issue a payment towards that card to set the credit card balance to $0. I want to record this transaction in quickbooks, but do not know under what account I should show the refund from the bank. Any advise would be grateful. Thanks in advance.
