A spokesperson for 200 Degrees said: “Due to a technical administrative error, the gift card number, rather than the gift card value was entered into the wrong part of the till.
“As a result, the customer was generated a receipt which suggested they had a rather higher amount of money left on their gift card than they actually did.
“The customer was only charged exactly what they should have been, and after they had completed their purchase, their gift card had exactly the right amount left on it, they just had a receipt which showed a very different amount, which the barista gave them as a souvenir.
“They were then given a correct receipt which showed the true value of the gift card.”
