Soldato
Had our annual renewal from BG this morning, jumped up from £285 last year to £330 to renew this year. That's around a 15% increase. It is their Level 2 cover which TBH excludes more than it covers and they can't even guarantee parts for the boiler (Ideal Classic masquerading under British Gas logo). Really tempted to tell them to stick it as we can get an annual service done by an indie for around £60 - £70. Only lingering doubt in my mind is the loss of a guaranteed call out if something goes wrong but then if they can't fix it anyway... cue paying 150% more than anywhere else for a replacement boiler. The other fly in the ointment is that we have our annual service booked for mid-May (there was a 6 week waiting list!) so guess we will lose that if we cancel.
So is this a bit of a rip off or is it still worth it for partial peace of mind, given the cover specifically excludes sludge and blocked pipes which is the biggest PITA with our system?
