    dont see what the problem is, you have said they told you that you would have to pay a fee between £5 and £50 and they charged £49.99.
    Now unless I'm going mad that is between 5 and 50?
  • no mate they dident make it clear that the money would come out then why do u think they phised for a card with a 1.00 fee to check who i was and olso they wont pay the money back even though ive seen no paperwork or have no idea where the comapny are how many times to they charge a fiver
