    then i proceeded to pay some bills with it esb gas phone etc
    then this morning my wife checked her online account and
    the €400 is still there and says available

    Neither, if you recieved funds then it will be debited from her account. May be some delay in system but you can be sure it will be picked up.

    Sure, spend it
