Possibly, unlike many on this thread, i actually earned a living from being a mechanic. One of the guys i worked with opened his own testing station less than a year ago. He tells me that one of his biggest concerns are people coming in and expecting jobs to be done free of charge - yes really. He also tells me it's not that uncommon - perhaps you may be one of them.Don’t be a can’t, be a can.0

Do you know if the garage is a member of The Motor Industry Federation? If so they may be able to help out as a mediator. They're linked on the AA website. This is a quote from their website -
‘If you have a complaint against an RMI member garage, the RMI’s National Conciliation Service should be able to help you get redress, if the problem cannot be solved in direct consultation with that member.’
To find a garage that is a member of the RMI, visit https://www.rmif.co.uk and use the ‘Find a Service’ function.
You never know, they might be able to help.0
