OP - step into the shoes of the provider. You felt cheated, confronted the provider and got your money back. Fact that the provider offered to return all your money shows how threatened she felt at the moment. She called you back after because she felt cheated. After all, you did get a HJTC in exchange for nothing.....

When you open the door, she says all seriously, "I don't normally burn peoples' houses down when they're at work, but I think you owe me for 30 extra minutes..."
Now that may be a bit of hyperbole, but regardless, as a hobbiest in that scenario, I'd probably feel like I were being threatened or intimidated.
