We went around but were then berated by air traffic control for not having obeyed their instructions 'Why did you not land when ordered'!
It's a different world.
Something similar happened to me at Kano one dark night in a DC10. We were cleared to land by the approach controller and at the end of the landing run were told to change to the tower for taxi instructions. The tower berated us for not getting landing clearance from him, and refused to give us taxi instructions until we asked him for landing clearance!!
