  • Hey folks..if my outside door is only 195mm height will i have to pass up on the fridgefreezer which is 200mm?...or is it ok to slightly tilt it back as it is brought in?...could someone reply asap as this would be the best option to choose for me..as i only have room for one appliance...and my existing fridge freezer has been on its last legs for ages now.

    Kev, just a thought, but there is a tick box that says that you agree blah... about half way down the page from memory - it wont let you go anywhere if you dont tick that. Also, Ive noticed from other forms that some dont like IE - I completed the form with Google Chrome browser.
    Also you could try clearing your browser cache and reloading the page clean with ctrl+f5

    Hope you get it sorted, I know how frustrated I got when I got the same outcome last time the offer was available, but its gone straight through for me this time :T

    I don't use a mobile phone as there is no reception in my area. It won't let you proceed if you don't put in a number - why do they think we all have one?

    Luckily I have an old one, not turned on or used, so I gave them that number, but they won't be able to contact me on it.

    Still, I hope I get a fridge.

    I cannot see any problem with tilting the fridge/freezer to get it through the door especially as I would expect there to be a step down outside.

    I think they have in mind something like a baby monitor where you can use the ring main to wire sound from the bedroom to the living room. This feels a bit like the fear of interference that can mess up a broadband connection (even though it does not share the same wiring). For example a cheap flashing Santa on the roof at Xmas time. If you put a medium wave portable radio next to your electricity supply, do you get ghastly interference from time to time?

    But what do I know? Exactly where I could replace my pre-historic "Indesit" fridge - I have a beam that is 1950 mm off the floor.:(

    Perhaps the "Rep" will be along in a minute to comment.
