Magnabooster?

My 89yr old Dad had Scottish Gas out for his yearly service under their monthly care plan he pays. The engineer tried to sell him a Magnabooster as his boiler, which is not 2yr old yet, is rusty. Scottish Gas supplied and fitted the system so surely they are responsible if a boiler of that age is now gettting rusty. My Dad was about to go ahead until I stepped in. What can be done about this and is it just a salesmans pitch.

    Salesman pitch... Nothing much can be done. You could cancel SG plan and switch to someone else. Tell them why.

    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    Tell him if it's faulty, Scottish Gas must replace it free of charge under the Sale of Goods Act as not being 'fit for purpose'.
