im amazed at how many "experts" knockbritishgasquotes when they
havent seen the actual contents of the quote,
a few pointers.. direct labour can be specified by the customer... the
quote will include free home care... the 330 boiler has substantial
upgrades.. vat is included becausebritishgascant "do a discount for
cash" and then forget to declare the vat.the radiatorshaveextended
warranty. the engineers wont **** in your water tanks (ever see
watchdog ?).. the boilers that are suppliedhavea parts availability
guarantee.. the engineers wont suddenly disappear half way through
the job or once theyhaveyour cash. ive seenbritishgas
jobs completed and ive seen independent jobs completed. enough said.

Is this the samebritishgasthat installed a newgasmeter in my mums house
a few years ago, resulting in the house filling withgas? - the nut's were
not even finger tight, how the house didn't end up several hundred feet away
i do not know, the transco chaps who came out at midnight said that the
connecting nuts were the wrong size, so instead of the BG bloke doing
something about it at the time (early morning), he just went home and left
it.

or is it the samebritishgasthat charge £300 per year for ch cover
(included as you mention above, even though it's not specifically requested)
and then refuse to do any work on the system once it reaches a few years
old?

no its not, transco change meters not british gas. boiler care is not
£300 per year its £14 per month. for £ 300 you get plumbing drainage
AND central heating care AND electrical cover (parts and labour
included)... refuse to do any work ! , now thats not true and you
know it. and as for your comment about homecare being included but not
requested, let me ask you this, if you bought a car and they gave you
a free 10000 mile service that you did not ask for....... would you
complain????
