New Boiler

Hi, any help is most appreciated!

I know I need to replace my old boiler as it is 20 years old and every other year needs repairing (although these repairs are covered by my insurance). I'm also aware that it's probably costing me more in gas bills as it is inefficient heating-wise. I have looked online and PayMonthly.NewBoilerCost.co.uk/find@findenergysavings.co.uk seem to be offering a good service with monthly payments that also cover breakdowns over the years and the 'best quotes available'. Can anyone tell me if they have experience of this web service? It seems MoneySavingExpert are good at recommending/comparing energy suppliers to switch to but don't offer the same service for boiler installation sadly.

    I'm guessing that getting a boiler installed by a local plumber will cost you around £1500-£2000, possibly less. Compare that with the 120 montly payments that you'll make to one of these boiler replacement companies and see if you think they are good value.

    I'd be inclined to take out a bank loan if I couldn't pay it in one lump and get it done locally. Dunno what others think
