Boiler/ central heating cover recommendations.

Hi all,

After a less than great day at the hands of Scottish gas team I wonder if anyone could give me recommendations for cover for my boiler/ heating system?

Am in north-east Scotland area.

Thanks

    I signed up with N Power after seeing a special offer. I pay £4.50 per month for the 1st year, which includes a service. :o). When my year is nearly up I'll be thinking of cancelling & looking around for another deal as it's bound to be hiked to a lot more than the £4.50 I pay now.

    When I had just my boiler serviced last year, prior to taking out this cover, I was shocked to be charged almost £100 by a person recommended to me by a neighbour. And this on an almost new Valiant boiler too & I thought it quite expensive compared to what I'd paid in my previous home.
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.

    £100 is a lot. I get my boiler serviced once a year and it's £50 from a gas engineer in the village.
    For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple and wrong.
