Later on I had a call from BT Operations offering £204.63 as a goodwill gesture for poor internet reception.  It sounded genuine as they knew I had contacted BT earlier on in the day and had all the information about my husband's name and correct address, etc. and  and then asked for his debit card details to which the repayment should be made.
