thats pretty daft mate never ask for anything to be done unless you get a price first.always ask there hourly rate.and get a proper qoute, saying that if anything else needs doing they must contact you first.

£30-50 inc vat and belt depending who you know etc

I think standard ford cam belts are about £18, so factor that on top of fitting.
