At this point you have an EC seat that isn't valid since you have no record of paying fees now (again, according to what I've been told).
When I spoke with the agent I told him I wanted to pay and was willing to pay, and had payed when I first booked the ticket. He said that since he changed the ticket to give me the reduced fare, it kept me in my ec seat but refunded me my money and he said there was no way he could charge me for it. I called gm line this morning and asked if I could swap seats to another seat in ec and they did without charging me. (I called because when I wanted to switch seats online it wanted to charge me. I have no problem paying for ec, its just that when a cs rep knowingly gives me the seat without charging me, then why should i pay? Im not cheating the system! I told him to charge me, he said he couldn't, and that's that!) I called back and they said I should've been charged, but since the agent said shed change my seat and didn't mention charging me for it, it was fine
