Hey guys,
Has anyone heard of this company, my mother has seemingly signed up to a £200/y direct debit with them for boiler services. They have a perfect review score on trustpilot but that seems to be people who have worked with them not taken services

thanks as always

    LOL You have posted in the : 

    Spotted a local bargain? Let local MoneySavers know!  Board?  

    Where is the local bargain?

    Perhaps asking in a more appropriate part of the forum will get more advice?  B)

    Now relocated to the ENERGY board. 

    Appears to be a small operation?

    Over the years there have been loads of schemes for Boiler service/repair and virtually all of them have been either very expensive or a straightforward scam.
    I have no knowledge of the Heating Plan but I would advise the OP to carefully examine the small print of any agreement to see just what the £200 covers. see hundreds of complaints about 24/7 home rescue re 'exclusions!

    I note that their offices are on the 4th floor of 169 Picacadilly - a prestigious London address where you can rent a 'virtual office' for £45 monthly to 'allow you to work from home, whilst conveying the right business image to potential clients in London and around the World.' https://www.virtual-headquarters.com/hq/mayfair-virtual-office-address-london/

    They very clearly will engage the sevices of a local gas fitter for the service, and most local fitters will charge between £50 and £100 for a service.
    P.S. Trustpilot reviews are just a joke.
