It is easy, write a letter explaining the situation, highlight the disputed charges and write the check short that much.
It's even easier if you pay by credit card -- just dispute the whole bill with the bank and let them sort it out. If you lose, the only cost to you is the interest on the disputed charge. (With AmEx, this approach can be even more effective since, for many merchants, they withhold all payments until a customer dispute is resolved.)
