You really should have agreed on the contract when leaving the 'reservation (?)' fee

If it is a reservation fee then that would potentially mean it being lost if you can't then agree on a tariff

If it was a deposit then you would have some signed a contract subject to a credit check, although I would have expected this to have been done at the same time

Maybe this was a O2 franchise store because I've never heard of an O2 store asking a reservation fee?

I would ring the store tomorrow for clarification
