You've seen the adverts with that daft 3D type animation and that annoying music (you should try listening to it for forty minutes while trying to get through to them, it really grates then). You think that is a good idea in case the boiler breaks down. Plumbers are so expensive etc. You pays them money for around five years, never call them out. Then in the coldest winter on record, well in my records anyway, when your boiler konks out and you need them what do they say? Sorry but we cannot get to you for five days. Five days!. 'It's the bad weather' they say extra demand etc. Well what about forward planning eh? What about the 5,000 odd engineers on the road 24/7 the adverts go on about? A load of tosh that's what it is. They takes your money but are not capable of delivering the service.
So I fixed it my self. A few minutes search on the net isolated the cause to be a frozen condensation drain. I defrosted it with a bit of hot water and a blower heater and bingo porblem sorted. I have a good mind to send British Gas a bill for my labour just before I cancel my policy. :rant:
