The 50-year-old dad was stunned at Royal Mail's meagre offer.
A Scottish dad who was forced to fly to Hungary to collect his daughter's passport after a "postal delay" has been left furious after he was offered eight stamps in compensation.
However, he was left furious after being only being offered a book of eight first-class stamps - as the original passport arrived 24 hours after it was cancelled. While it was no longer valid, due to cancelling it, he claims to have been told it was classed as delayed, but not lost, according to postal rules, reports the Record.Attila said: "They are just not considering the human element of this at all. The whole thing was very distressing.
The children's Hungarian passports were due for renewal, so Attila applied through the Hungarian consulate. The documents are then sent to an authority in Hungary before being posted to the UK. To his dismay the now cancelled and invalid document arrived at the family home the following day. Convinced the new passport wouldn't arrive in time for the trip, he took time off work and paid £300 to travel to Hungary to collect it, on July 4.
