It is perfectly legal - they can charge whatever they like.

Perhaps your mum can find a cheaper alternative.
Although I can't see it on paypoint's site, the person making the payment should not pay extra for the service. If you drop an e-mail to [email protected] to ask about it and name the shop whlie you're at it they may do something about it.
On the BBC's press office site it says

"PayPoint

There are just under 15,000 PayPoint outlets (14,891) which will be able to operate the new TV Licensing services from 2 May, rising to 17,000 in 2007. ..

(I've cut out the boring stuff)

...The service is provided free of charge to the consumer"
