Undercharded for ring resizing?

I took my (platinum) engagement ring and wedding ring to be resized (made bigger by 1 1/2 sizes) to a local jewellers. I had previously spoken to the jewellers on the phone and they quoted my £50. I believed this to be per ring. When I actually took the ring in she told me that it was going to be £75 as I was going up an extra half size. I told her that she had quoted me £50 over the phone and she then said that she would do it for £55. I then asked if I needed to pay now or when I collected the rings and she said I should pay now and went off to get the credit card pin machine. When she came back she had already inputed the price and when I was putting my pin number in I noticed that the total price was £55, not the £110 I was expecting for both rings. The invoice clearly states that I am paying for two platinum rings to be sized up by 1 1/2 sizes.
Does this sound like I am paying too little? If they have undercharged me can they try and charge me more when I go to collect them?
Thanks in advance for your help

Sounds about right to me, but generally if you take them back to the place you bought them from they should do it FOC - at least the first time anyway.0

Thanks Moonbeam, I got the engagement ring from Beaverbrooks and the wedding band from Hatton Garden. Beaverbrooks wouldn't resize my wedding band as it wasn't bought off them. I didn't want to send them to different jewellers just in case!0

£55 sounds about right for resizing two rings.0
