Review of the 247 Home Rescue, Home Emergency Plan:

Proceed with caution

1
I don't normally leave reviews, but I feel compelled to share my recent appalling experience with 24/7 home rescue. After a routine boiler service, they flagged my boiler as "at risk," insisting that I needed an immediate replacement of the heat exchanger due to a broken part. This claim was particularly suspicious, considering they had been servicing my boiler for the past three years without any prior issues. They quoted a staggering £900 for the replacement, despite admitting that the fault would have occurred during their own service. Outraged, I contested their assessment, demanding further investigation. Eventually, after many telephone calls, they begrudgingly sent out the boiler manufacturer for a second opinion, only to discover that the supposedly defective part was perfectly fine. This ordeal exposed not only their incompetence but also their blatant disregard for customer satisfaction. I shudder to think about the vulnerable individuals, like the elderly or those unable to advocate for themselves. They would have needlessly forked out a substantial sum for a repair that wasn't even necessary. The lack of accountability and empathy exhibited by 24/7 boiler service is utterly unacceptable. I implore anyone considering their services to proceed with extreme caution. Trusting them with your boiler maintenance could lead to unnecessary expenses and undue stress. Avoid them at all costs, and spare yourself the headache of dealing with their shocking customer service. Reviewed on: 22nd February 2024

Rip off boiler cover policy that they try to charge you extra for

Absolutely ridiculous! Had annual boiler service, then they said oh there's a grommet missing on the cable so it's deemed unsafe so they had to cap off the boiler and remove the valve so I can't use it. Was told that someone will be round to fit a cable grommet and reconnect it the next day, fine. Then I get a phone call saying for the work to go ahead I need to pay £120!!!! To fit a stupid cable grommet! I've had this boiler since moving into this house and have had multiple boiler services done over the last 8 years and nobody has raised this issue. I'm now left with no heating or hot water unless I pay them £120 to reconnect it! Absolutely ridiculous daylight robbery. If I didn't have service plan with them I would be better off! To add to this, I have just logged into my account to check my cover... I am on ‘Premium’ cover at £18.70 per month with £0 excess and this is my second year with them. I have never claimed and they were the ones that serviced the boiler last year! It clearly also states that it is a rolling monthly contract so I’m not tied down and can cancel any time so why was I told when I tried to cancel that I’d still need to pay for 12 months!? I thought the whole idea of getting a boiler cover with unlimited call outs and £0 excess is that there should never be unexpected costs on top of this monthly premium so what exactly is the point of me having this cover!?
