New boiler grants

Not sur if this is correct place but I enquired about new boiler grant and was successful. However if I want a like for like boiler I have to pay 500 if I want to convert to combi boiler it is 1000. I cautiously agreed to 1000 combi boiler. Today they rang to book me in and they said I would have to pay 1450. I said no  they then reduced it to 1250. Is it normal to pay this. I have enquired elsewhere and they say grants are not available and lot of firms won't do it unless boiler is broken.

    What scheme and what company?
    Sounds more like you're being sold a new boiler.
    As with every major expense, shop around.
