I think they are being fair with their offer. If you want to keep it and are satisfied its only a small area, then some seam sealer should do the job.

It's an easy repair, I think you should keep it.

As already suggested, erect the tent during a dry period (if we ever get one)and run some seam sealer along the seams that have been leaking. Wait for the seam sealer (which is like a clear glue) to dry (24 hours at least) before packing the tent away. A tube of seam sealer costs around a fiver and goes a long way. Then grab the £20 refund with both hands and run!
