Charged £75 for engineer to fix fault in cab8net in street

Last month my broadband service had become unusably intermittent.  I ran the fault check process online which said there was a fault which would require an engineer to call.  When the engineer arrived he went straight to the cabinet in the street and fixed a fault with a loose wire, he then came to the house at which point my broadband was working properly again.  I now see that I have been charged £75 for this visit - this is wrong, I quote from the website “We'll charge you if the engineer was unable to find a fault with your service during your visit, or the fault was found to be related to a condition inside your premises.”. The fault was found and fixed in the cabinet in the street. I expect a refund promptly - please tell me if there is anything else I need to do to ensure that this happens.

Actually, it should be in the Billing section! I'll move this and remove the duplicate.

If you would like the support team to look into this for you make sure that your personal details including TalkTalk phone number or account number are complete on your community profile (click here) so that they can link your forum identity with your account and then wait for them to respond. Bear in mind that they won't be back online until Monday.
