EconomyBookings Hire Cars warning

Hello All.
Thought I would share my experience when I recently booked a Spanish hire car using the brokers EconomyBookings.
This was the first time I'd used EconomyBookings but I had some issues with the booking and I decided that I would use Free cancellation that was included in the package.
I checked on their site and found that EconomyBookings will give a booking credit rather than refund your money, but using the Help facility it states that you may be able to have the credit returned to your payment card if you're registered with them.
I took a couple of minutes to do that and then cancelled the hire car and received a booking credit. When I used the link (within their confirmation email) to obtain a refund, it stated that EconomyBookings will charge 60 Euros admin fee!
Just be aware of this.
