I've heard the opposite - that they basically charge about £80 for labour and don't charge you for parts, so long as the serial number of your camera is within a batch that they know was affected.
They won't say this explicitly, as the official line is that there is not an official problem. But rather a lot of people have got them repaired out of warranty for way less than replacing the lens unit would normally cost.
