I do like the last sentance.
OK - if they admit that it is the result of "regrettable human error" - then they must know which "human" it was. This "human" should therefore be disciplined and held accountable for any charges that become due, under our banner of accountability. What's the betting it comes down to a keyboard monkey rather than some incompetent higher up the ladder?
Appalling. I hope that the press are still picking this one up.
