A fairly straightforward mistake was made, they replaced and gave you a token compensation. Most companies wouldn't have even give you the tenner. I think Amazon have done fairly well here to you, to be fair.0 -
Mmm £10 compensation + the right product.

But what more did you want? A mistake was made, put right and you received more than adequate compensation.
Had it happened to me, this would have been a "praise" thread for excellent Amazon customer service.0 -

Right, but as I said you eventually got what you were after + £10. I would be happy with that?
Play.com sent me the wrong DVD, when I sent it back they replaced it and made a payment in my account to cover the postage, with all of 30p compensation for myself.Male.
