I fully agree.
One problem is that phone agents do not want to sound "ignorant". Hence, they give explanations that are way over they pay grade.

As a general statement, the info given by the last agent is wrong, so you should not worry having made wrong moves before calling that last agent.
And be happy with a low fare adjustment. There could be many reasons for such a low adjustment and the call agent could not manually adjust your fare, the system does.Overriding the system is a complex procedure requiring a supervisor approval.
