    Are you talking in Home insurance or a service plan? 

    Domestic & General, for a service plan dont ask what fuel it is nor for a model number so they are the same price.

    I have domestic and general plans for a freezer and washing machine. I was able to negotiate the price down slightly. I stopped the cooker plan because they said they couldn't fix it as it would mean removing the worktop to get to the electrics for the middle oven. The hob and main oven still work.

    Which is why 99% of the time these plans are a waste of money. You would be better off putting the money into a savings pot to pay for repairs as they arise.

    Sounds to me like they don’t cover arranging access to fix it.
