Twice, Customer Service promised me to refund the wrongly charged fee (195 Pounds). Unfortunately, despite the assurances, the money did not reach my account. Should they be punished for deceiving people? How to make them do it?

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

If O2 deceived me what's the point of complaining to them?
