Just been hit with £375 fee on top of the £100 from last month for the second route. Will try to go back in time
and later try to ring and aske to have it reversed.

Which second route is this? How have you been hit with £475 for 2 transactions and by whom?

By topping up £7.5k and £2k respectively at merchants which have a cash advance category, like Revolut, topping up prepaid cards and paying off credit cards.

Once the transaction is performed, the cash advance fee is charged, GBIT won’t make the fee go away – Virgin Money would have to remove it.
