When you can buy a brand new single  oven for £170 upwards I can never understand why people pay so much to get an old oven repaired especially when there is no guarantee it can be

Because it was double Neff oven (worth about £1300), i thought it may just be a loose connection or something, so would be a cheap fix and worth doing it.

I emailed them complaining and they refunded me. Thanks guys!

Obviously. What I’m saying is.. I recently moved into a house that has a beautiful kitchen with an expensive built in double Neff oven. I decided that it would make more sense to get a repairman around to fix an issue instead of ripping out the built in oven and replacing it with a £170 oven..

yes, except you now have an expensive ornament. 

You will have to replace it with… something that works - or risk another repairman and call out charge.

OP stated in opening post that they have bought a new oven.
