Actually planned on picking a shift up today but cannot as waiting on parcel. It's more of the emotional distress caused to my daughters birthday being ruined.
It's really not a serious issue. It's your choice to stay in waiting for your parcel and £50 compensation is not a starting point, it's more than acceptable in view of what happened. Banks are well used to people trying their luck with sob stories, i'm sure your Daughter will be very happy with an extra £50 for her birthday !

It seems like it was his fault because that triggered the subsequent events. I reckon you start at £50 but aim to get about £500 compo from him.
Discounts, coupons and cashback:
2019 = £1,443.52
2020 = £1,191,76
I'm pretty sure your daughter will be ok.
and deleted the opening post!!!, dont understand why people do that rather than leaving it there to help others in the same boat
