Speeding Fine Refund

[plug]

Last year 19/01/04 I was caught speeding on the A303 in road works, I got a fixed fine and 3 points,I paid the fine and sent my licence off to get the points put on it. This morning I have recived a letter from Wiltshire Police saying that they have received legal advice from thier safety camera partnership solicitors, and in the interest of fairness they are offering a refund and the points removed from my licence.

Is this a one off or has everyone had a refund?
Why has it taken over 18 months for them to come to this decision?

Don't forget to ask for any out of pocket expenses, such as increased insurance premiums!
