If it turns out that it wasn't, perhaps the servicing garage/dealer will have some stumping up to do.
Cambelt is an advisory, recommendation, customers discretion, not part of a service at all.

Yes, so I would have expected a worn cambelt to be detected during inspection at one of those services, but you're right, it wouldn't be a compulsory fix.
