As the title suggests; what unusual compensation have you received recently for mistakes, poor service or having to wait a long time?

  1. Cafe Ritazza (Manchester Train Station): offered me milk and Marmite instead of clotted cream and jam with a traditional English cream tea (they had no clotted cream and jam)

  2. Starbucks: added two extra shots to my coffee because I had a long wait (I didn't even complain about the wait)

  3. Italian Restaurant: I sent a steak back because it was cooked well done instead of medium; what came back was two medium cooked steaks, minus the chips and sauce which were originally on the plate

  4. In a pub: a free upgrade from a half pint to a pint of beer as they had no half pint glasses
