Contract Canceled

It was a first for me. My contract was canceled. Now I am getting a bill from the travel company for almost $300.00. I didn't get paid travel or for the hours I worked. The travel company did the interview and didn't communicate the questions I had with the hospital. I arrived to a very different job than what I had accepted. I expressed a willingness to work, but indicated that I had mentioned in the interview that I had limited experience in the position they were wanting me to do. They reported that they didn't know I didn't have the experience and didn't want to "train me." I will never accept a position in the future without speaking with the person who will be evaluating my performance.

I have since accepted another assignment with another company and the hospital is very happy with my performance. They were willing to let me gain some experience with them. I had been waiting till I heard from them again, not wanting to say something I would regret but now I don't think it will make any difference. I was very angry with the whole situation when it occurred and am even more now. Any advise will be appreciated.
