Just I case anyone thinks it sounds a little strange that we ended up not noticing that the rates had changed....

This is all they sent us.



We missed that really clear "new rates" reference...

And to be clear, this is what is laid out on the reverse.




You can all clearly see the new rates, yes?

Of course their press office is fully supportive.



Oddly though.

Even though it's all our fault, they will cancel it all.

Because they're sooooo generous.

This is their offer.

Would you like to see the bill that started all of this?

This is a bill for 56 days!

Or... £33,619.30 per year...

Can you see why we had to look at letting people go? Can you imagine that until now this has not been resolved AND THEY ARE STILL CHARGING US AT THIS RATE!

And this is the first we knew of the new rates.

Oh yes.

They debited the entire amount from our account, the same day we opened the bill.

And did you notice that the press officer substituted £2500 something for £5158.03?

I'm sure that was a typo, of course. Almost exactly half.

Funny that.

Ask them to come and meet you and go through the paperwork :) get the journalists to arrange it...
