Default ***kin British Gas! Rant

Rant

Been having a new gas central heating installed over the past few days.
The original system was installed by a complete Cowboy, and has been a

right
pain in the ... so as I'm now partially disabled and getting to the age
where I need my comforts etc. I went to British Gas for new system; BIG
MISTAKE! I don't believe I was stupid enough to actually believed their
promises!
BG sub'd it out to local installation firm who turned out to be.... well,

to
give you an idea, whenever one of them picked-up the circular saw, he went
"Yee Haa", every ***kin time; I don't think I have ever heard anyone go

"Yee
Haa" and genuinely mean it!
I had to ask then to fill in the holes they left in the brick-work (they
still haven't done all or them), the house is a right mess ("We leave your
home as you would!"!). The gas pipe has been run outside, even thought I
asked them not to.
In spite of repeated promises, the electrician still hasn't been to fit

the
lecky supply to the boiler, and the earth bond to gas pipe. So I still

don't
have any heating or hot water.

It may well be a good system, and I'd like the opportunity to find-out!

My advice, keep clear of BG, they are heavy with the promises "We charge
more because we fit the best", "We leave your home as you would", but

light
on delivery!



A good example of how they've allowed the BG Group to go to pot. Complain
as hard as you can, and don't back down no matter what. And also make them
wait for the full payment and then ask them how it feels to be left with an
incomplete job.
