    Awful experience, they chase your money!

    This is the worst company I've had the misfortune to deal with!! When I joined they promised me the earth. Before my first payment was made (1st December) I had a date for my boiler service (15th December) I was then pestered on the phone everyday for about 10 days asking questions about my boiler, radiators and if I had a retardant in the system, I just bought the house, how would I know whats in the system? After several attempts at trying to sell me additional services (and failed!) They rang me to cancel my boiler service until FEBRUARY! I said this was unacceptable and they agreed to send a subcontractor, but they never gave a date! 2 weeks later they rang me and 5 minutes to 3 in the afternoon and asked if they could service my boiler at 3 o clock, I was 30 miles away doing my shopping, 5 minutes notice!! They have since informed me they are not carrying out any services before March! AGAIN I said this is not acceptable, they were told my boiler is probably over 12 years old and I joined so it would be serviced and I would have breakdown cover (at a price) I am now waiting for them to give me a firm and fixed date to service my boiler so I know it is running efficiently and safely. My cover is costing me £120 a year, and I have to pay for breakdowns and emergencies. For £120 I could have had a local plumber service my boiler and I would of had £60 towards any callout or emergency. 24/7 have to date been appalling, they never give firm and fixed dates or times, their customer care consultants are trained to just say sorry and move on! I will not be using this company again and I could not with all honesty recommend them to anybody. "Should have gone to British Gas" Awful Reviewed on: 28th December 2022

    Cheap means cheap do not expect alot

    My bad and time consuming experience: I asked for annual service at the end of the summer. The engineer came and found a fault in the pump and left without doing anything. The heating system was not used over the summer time and was not working after I tried it following the service, but they refused to repair/replace the pump, saying it is a remedial work. I complained, but despite appreciating my frustration, they said they do not repair pumps and the cant help me. The heater was not working when tried so it is not an advisory job but tgey still wouldn't repair and they believe it is my job to do independently Fir unknown reason, they offered me 25 pounds :) :) :) which I, of course, refused and cancelled the policy on the same day. Fortunately, my home insurance covers the heating, and they have already sorted this issue out despite telling them that the service engineer found the pump not working. They simply said you heater is not working and you are covered. Customer service is another long story with one of them telling me 'do not complain as there is no benefit of complaining' When I asked him to talk to someone other than him, he said: 'I am the manager and the only one here and unfortunately I can help you'. The complaint team said they will deal with that problem. They, simply, collect little money to attract customers,however, you'll not know the facts until you need them.

    Very poor service - take care

    We had a very frustrating and negative experience with the company. They charged us a £95 call out charge having said we are covered by our service agreement, and then asked for over £250 for additional costs. Wenhave refused to pay, and it would have cost us just £150-180 to get it fixed by a local plumber. Now the issue remains unresolved, we paid £95 for nothing. Very bad service, we shall cancel our contract and not use them again. Reviewed on: 1st November 2022
