OK, I think you should have read their terms and conditions first. They have specified on the bullets 1 and 4 that they have the right to choose an alternative if you do not say the contrary

I do not think this is fair, but legally, they had it on writting... Give it a try, but to be honest I do not think you will be able todo much about that, bt just stop buying from them...
