    No need to come across as rude. The tv was high spec at the time so any offer if a rubbish tv I wouldn!!!8217;t want it. Yes 6.24 and it!!!8217;s a new for old policy

    There is nothing in that post that is rude.

    What make and model is the TV ?.

    £650 doesn't usually get a particularly high specification of TV. In 2016 a high spec TV would be a 4K OLED with HRD and would have cost alot more than £650.

    Your TV won't be £650 to replace. 2 years ago, a £650 TV would've been 50" sort of thing, nowadays you can get a 50" unit for just over £400.

    Say your premium increases by £3p/m, that's £36 pa or £180 over 5 years. Add £100 excess, you'd be making £120 (hypothetical figures). Is that saving worth it for the hassle of making a claim, getting the unit sent off for repairs, discussing suitable replacements? You decide.

    How was he rude?

    He gave a reasonable reply, maybe just not reasonable to a snowflake.
