This sounds like one of those stories where we don't hear the real details. But if it did happen like this, and the pax were subjected to a go around at low level for admin/accountancy reasons, it sounds like one to be referred to the AAIB as an incident for investigation. Either you tell them before departure or once they are on the ground. An accounting hiatus affecting the first flight of a season is not unknown, such happens, but never heard of it being handled like this.
