Hi jdturk thanks for your reply. What I don't understand though is why would they bother making a law so impractical, I mean who is going to pay an electrician to diagnose an electrical item and then get them to write out a full report. How much would that cost? Only items above £2000 would be worth bothering about0

It doesn't have to be a report although, depending ont he circumstances, it may be appropriate.
The burden of proof is, after 6 months, on the consumer to prove that the fault was inherent. Obviously the better the evidence, the more likely a Judge will find in favour.0 -
About £50+, all of which you should be able to get back should it go to court.Goodnessme wrote: »Hi jdturk thanks for your reply.
