I would have insisted that if he's going to charge, then the least he should do is put the car on a ramp and check the work has actually been done.
Or offer him the opportunity to discuss his actions (or lack of) with an official from VOSA.
I wouldn't be going back there again. If his workmanship on the retest is so sloppy, it brings into question his workmanship on the MoT itself. I like my MoTs to be firm but fair and I like to know if there's anything I should be aware of, even if its not a fail.
