Thank you OP. I was hoping to see a mistake on that.
The links I posted from the centres webiste shows they were wrong to charge you for a retest.
did you follow up and then ask them re last year?1 -

Many thanks but don't forget the link the evidence on their own website.dipsomaniac said:Thanks, am awaiting a reply from them. Will update
Ask them re last year and if it was a mistake by a manager, I wonder how many other people have been charged.
Good luck.0 -

Didn't push a refund for last year as I took car away to repair and not sure I was eligible as I fitted new brake discs and pads"The Holy Writ of Gloucester Rugby Club demands: first, that the forwards shall win the ball; second, that the forwards shall keep the ball; and third, the backs shall buy the beer." - Doug Ibbotson0

Did you ask them why you was charged as their site clearly states they won't - i wonder how many others have suffered your fate.dipsomaniac said:Update. Got refunded retest fee for this year.

Many thanks for the update and I for one appreciates that as at times some can be a bit arrogant towards someone asking a question.0 -
A few people I know have been stitched up at these test centres regarding m.o.t 's including some fictitious work. I think the "F" stands for fiddle.0
