We,ve heard it but how will it work??
Who will pay me £400 for changing my old boiler to a more efficient one? What stops plumbers and the like increasing their prices by the same amount?

Been (or is it being) an installer , I hope EAGA , don`t get their hands on it . They will !!!! it up just like the warmfront scam , i mean scheme .
The customer should get it direct , once they have submitted an invoice from an installer which should include details of boiler make , model no and ser no and include a copy of the gas work notification certificate .
If EAGA get their hands on it they`ll charge an admin fee , so the punter doesn`t get the full £400 .Arf :think:0 -

When is this going to happen as I need to replace a boiler and my Potterton Flamingo is on the list. Do I replace it now and then submit an errrr altered invoice later on?0
