Help with identifying a bird's band

Hello,
I got a Ringneck in december from a petstore. They told me she is 8 months old. So she should have been born at 2017. But I recently checked her ring and there is number 14. I am uploading an image.
Can you tell me what that numbers mean? I can't find in anywhere.

And if the bird is from 2014 and the petstore told me she is from 2017, what can I do? Is it possible to get scammed like this by a well know petstore brand?

I am also attaching some picures of her s maybe some of you can differentiate the age from the picture.

Thank you for any help.

Hatched 13/09/14??, she looks old enough, petstore staff are not That experienced, my daughter had to teach them how to sex Hamsters!. I don't know where you live but in the UK we have the sales of goods act to fall back on.
