Boiler Insurance

How about the original company that installed it ? sometimes they give a longer guarantee.
Just had a quick look on the Glow Worm site, it depends which model but some have a 2 year guarantee. (If its A rated it might have this).
The website also mentions extended guarantees ?0 -

I thought this was the saviour I was looking for - but the £99 repair is for British Gas customers only.....I am with Southern Electric!! Running out of options!!!0 -
but even the other deal I linked seems good ( upto £160ish- as opposed to your other £700 quotes ) and you may find them willing to discount if you take a contract at same timeAny posts on here are for information and discussion purposes only and shouldn't be seen as (financial) advice.0

You are right - this looks like a brilliant option (don't need to be a customer either) - many many thanks
I am still going to call Glow Worm just in case but it looks like my worst option now is to pay £168!!!

I must have been lucky then !
All sorted!!!!!
If you ring one number they will not include repairs for existing breakage but ring another and they include it within the package!
You can pay one upfront fee for a one-off repair or get suckered into to a year contract..I have been happily suckered in.
Thanks to all for excellent help0
