  • Do I have any right to complain

    Of course! This isn't soviet Russia. Just don't expect them to take any notice.

    Hate to sound harsh but I'm sure others are thinking it, £65 is an awful lot to spend on a child for their birthday if things are tight. Children need to be taught that there are more important things in life than material goods and if the family can't afford it then that's the end of it, we don't all get what we want in life. I know she'll be upset if she was promised X but gets Y but she'll get over it and be content with a smaller gift.

    Yeah but probably OP never intended to spend that on their child.

    They saw it was ringing up as zero and put a load more in their backet. They were probably only spending a tenner until they decided to take advantage of the glitch

    3.3 Your order is accepted and the contract concluded when the product ordered is despatched.

    Would this not be in the OP's favour, breech of contract etc?

    No. A contract requires consideration on both sides. If the item had been a penny, then it might be arguable (but still...just no), but free = no consideration = no contract.

    She paid for delivery - since the items weren't delivered, she's entitled to a full refund of the delivery charge.
