    With the amount of people involved I doubt any compensation will be forthcoming.

    Oh no, OH already made plans for his £500 spending money. Now who will break those news to him...

    Good thing I checked on here! Somehow something just didn't feel quite right about it.

    The fair thing would be to let everybody go anyway :rotfl:

    definitely complain and don't put up with just a sorry - they have caused a lot of upset with this - ideally they would give the prize to all promised but worst case reasonable compensation should be achievable!
