I recently received a £2 voucher from a supermarket after complaining vociferously about the poor quality of their own-brand Rich Tea biscuits, which I spent on more tasty, tasty biscuits. Tell us about your trivial victories that have made life a tiny bit better.

Around the same ammout as the OP too (£28). That meant a bounce charge, and overdrawn charge and a charge for paying a DD when overdrawn.
The charges are a complete scam but, sadly, those in power won't declare them illegal despite the fact they are by any logical intepretation of the UKs contract laws.

you go overdrawn wouldn't satisfy the "liquidated damages v penalties clauses". Bouncing a direct debit and then charging you would, yet, it's allowed to continue with impunity.
Most now have dropped the amount considerably, but it's still there.
