Oasis have issued fans with collectible refund cheques, with some choosing not to bank the money but instead retain the payment order as a souvenir.

The band promised fans a refund at a show in Manchester last month after sound problems affected the set, though guitarist Noel Gallagher later described the 20,000 people who applied for reimbursement as "cheeky c***s".

The cheques sent to fans have a Dig Out Your Soul-era Oasis logo on the top alongside "Bank Of Burnage" in the band's Big Brother font and are also signed by both Noel and Liam Gallagher.

A number of the cheques have been put up for auction on eBay, with the current price on some items in excess of their monetary value.
