Back in 2012 I bought a £50 gift voucher from Republic for my daughter. In 2013 they went bust with the voucher unused and non-refundable. No surprise there.
Today I got my payout from the administrators, a first class letter containing a beautifully printed cheque, for 15p!

Why do they bother? I don't know how many other worthless cheques were sent out but I'd bet the recipients would have preferred the money to go somewhere useful.
