say you want £100 or you are going to report them to VWUK for very bad service.

The fact that they have offered you money has admitted they are at fault and know it!  how much was the total bill for the job as it will help to compare how much of an insult £50 is.

I don't think you should be paying the labour element of this job at the very least.

As has already been pointed out you take the car to the OEM franchise to avoid mistakes like this.  It's a simple mistake but your car should not have left the service bay in this state let alone be parked up and ready for you to collect it.

I don't think that's gonna happen with one tooth out, It's just a case of the best not being tight enough when fitting, new belts don't bend much.
