Noooo wino! Hope you are ok. Do they not have an urgent appointment catagory (same or next day)? Sounds to me like you fit the bill. If the receptionists ask what the prblem is say you prefer not to discuss it with them. At mine I have to do this as they try and tell you if they think it's urgent or not. They have no medical training or have any idea how much pain you can be in, or if it could be symptoms of something serious. I'd get back on the phone if I were you chuck x

hospital made me swear today. Walked in to see a new specialist, only to be told she doesn't know why i was referred to her as it's another type of specialist I should have been reffered to by the last specialist. It's only been an ongoing problem for about 16 or so years :mad2:

Does your boiler have a pipe that vents outside? If so that's the problem and you need to insulate it and/or warm it up if the boiler packs up. Don't block it..just warm it in a safe way.

The pipe is insulated the problem was a water leak that leaked internally and shorted things out. Had new water valve fitted and transformer.

 

We have since received a letter from British Gas appologising for their failure in not providing the service expected and for any suffering experienced during the period we did not have hot water or heating.

 

Our Gas and electric are with british gas and so I am going to send them my electric bill that is higher than normal due to having to use a fan heater to keep warm. Lets see how sorry they really are.

I have been reading all of the Complaints regarding Brighthouse Stores. My daughter purchased 2 Italian Leather sofas 2 years ago from a Brighthouse store in Norfolk. These cost her £2,500 and she did not have any home insurance so was told she had to take out theirs before she could get them. After 2 years these" Italian Leather Sofas" started flaking and the colour was fading. She contacted Brighthouse and was told this "It must be due to people sitting on them" EXCUSE ME WHAT ELSE DO YOU DO WITH SOFAS USE THEM AS SHELVES". Then we were told that we wouldnt go and buy a car and 2 years later if it went wrong take it back and demand a refund. Sorry Brighthouse your wrong you can actually.... Even though the Warranty has expired or a guarantee has run its year you do have up to 6 years to go back to the retailer and complain. Its 5 years in Scotland... After a week of phone calls to Brighthouse my daughter was told an inspector would be visiting her to look at the sofas. After 2 weeks she was told she could have 2 sofas of the same quality and description but they would be a different colour. My daughter went along to the store with a friend ( Always take someone with you, you will see why later). A customer service advisor ( chuckles to myself) showed my daughter 2 brown sofas, one of them had a very small mark on the top left hand corner. She was then told if she wanted them someone would come out and buff them professionally. On delivery of the sofas and after the delivery men left my daughter noticed that all around the bottom the leather was peeling off and there were more scuff marks than originally shown. I contacted them on her behalf so she didn't lose her temper only to receive a load of verbal abuse and that because she accepted them she had to make due. I found out that when she went to look at them they had wrapped them in cellophane so all the defects at the bottom were not on show. Luckily though her witness who was with her has also said that they were wrapped and they were only shown the small mark. I am now in the middle of contacting Trading Standards amongst other people. Until EVERYONE makes a stand and refuses to make any payments companies like these will continue to operate. In time different company's will pop up all over the country. One thing you are all forgetting your complaint is not with Brighthouse it is with the Finance Company. If everyone gets together you'll find that these stores will be forced to close. I am 1 person who will and is not going to let these get away with it.

Got my gas bill, the first one with the new energy saving boiler, hhmmmmmmm, bills doubled aarrgghhhhhHHHHHHH and I dont even heat the water as have power shower that does that. We either are cooking in the house or when turn it down slightly freeze. Must admit these are radiators that are controlled where as old system was all one temp, but the old boiler was well economical and it was taken out of my hands by it being council house.

 

Will call them out to check its usage if next quaters is as high.
