Its a sore one, but they do advise you how to check and top up oil levels and if you have failed to do this properly then you cannot expect Honda UK to be held responsible for your error and pick up the bill to rectify it.

If you had realised that you had overfilled it at the inital stage you could have drained the oil before driving the car and start over again.
