Amy Lloyd was under the impression she had paid £30 for the two fairy light balloons at a local Christmas event but was met with a nasty surprise the following day.

A mum was left horrified to discover that she had been unknowingly charged £400 for two £15 Christmas balloons she purchased for her kids at a park. Amy Lloyd from Cwmbran enjoyed a festive evening on Tuesday with her husband John and their two sons, Jacob and Jorgie as they attended Christmas at Bute Park in the city centre.

Amy was left gobsmacked when her husband's bank informed the couple that she had actually paid £430 after an extra digit had been added before the £30. The mother said: "We offered to pay cash and the man said he would rather we paid by card, which is fine because I guess a lot of places prefer card payments these days.

She continued: "The next day the bank messaged my husband to say that £430 had been taken out of our account, so he rang them and they said the money had been paid by card to a company called Fairy Lights Balloons. The website address written on the balloon doesn’t work so I emailed Bute Park themselves and messaged them on social media."
