A few months ago I was looking very seriously at a new boiler via company I'd seen online and advertised on TV. They were advertising a new A rated boiler fully installed for £1770, I did some homework and it looked really good.
I decided to put the purchase on the back-burner though as I was going through redundancy and in the middle of finding a new job. Things have settled down now however and I'm in a position to go though with it - but I cannot find any trace of the company. I'm sure they had the word "box" in their name, but that's about all I can remember.
I thought I'd bookmarked their website but sadly I didn't. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Much appreciated if so.

I did a quick search and there is a company called Boxt, would that be them?

Them's the !!!!!!s! How has that not shown up for me then? Strange.
Much obliged squire!0 -
10 years to pay it off at 9.9%? No thanks. Almost every new condensing boiler is A rated. And their budget options are Vokera...need I go on?
If you need to borrow to pay for an install, get a loan elsewhere, it'll be a lot cheaper.No free lunch, and no free laptop0 -
Macman is correct as usual, I d have a bet that the boiler wont last the 10 years you are going to take to pay it off.why not search out instead the cheapest supplier of Worcester/Bosch and then find someone to fit it at the best rate. If its a straightforward refit of existing modernish boiler it will be less than £1000 to fit.
My neighbour recently drove to Manchester to source a Worcester/Bosch at around the £800 mark for a model to run a large 4 bedder when the local Plumbers merchants could supply same model at over £12000 -
Your local independent GSR RGI will be able to obtain a boiler from his preferred manufacturer at trade rates-many RGI's will not fit a boiler they have not supplied, for obvious reasons.
I cannot see any boiler on that site coming in at less than £2070. These people are simply buying in bulk and then subcontracting the install at a very low rate. It's not possible to just self select a boiler-it requires a proper site survey to establish if the water pressure and flow are adequate, and if the gas supply is sufficient, especially with a combi.No free lunch, and no free laptop0
