Apple Support Card, super rare, ???

by @capyrancher

I bought two books on Apple Books

I read the first one and a little of the second one,

When i bought the books it said transaction successful and charged my account for the money it cost

A few days later the transaction proof was gone and a new charge for both of the books was automatically taken from my bank account 😤

I reported it as an issue to the apple reports and request a refund for the second charge, and I explained what was going on

Apple emailed me back and said that they refunded me

Yet my bank account has not changed

There was no refund given to me

The two iPods (from now on referred to as Green and Blue) both have the green-orange-orange or green-orange-green-orange blinking lights when powered on and you click the play button. I have attempted to follow the steps to restore them through iTunes multiple times. Green is able to be detected as an (E:) device on my laptop and blinks orange while on the charging port, so it can hold a charge. I can go through the files, and at the start of the day I cleared out the audio files that were on it- very funny to see what 11 year old me was listening too. From here I've attempted to restore on iTunes, ejected it, and tried to play a file I put on it into F00. I still get the green-orange-orange blinking. From here I've done research and used FAT32 in attempt to reset the files, as a replacement for the 32-bit iPod cleaner Apple had supplied when this issue first arose. I then restored through iTunes. Everything in the files looks Fine. I've tried setting Green to disc mode, and still it flashes the restore sequence lights.

Blue is more difficult and an iPod I didn't own myself, so I don't know its history (it was given to me with the charging cable from a family friend). With Blue, it similarly flashes the green-orange-orange light when powered on. I believe it can hold a charge, but I'm not 100% certain. When on the port, it briefly blinks a yellow light before stopping, or no light appears at all. While the port is plugged into a port to charge it, it stays yellow. The device isn't detected on my laptop either, so I'm unable to run a restore or FAT32 on it.
