Application for a new government backed boiler was a total nightmare with this company, they put nothing but obstacles in your way making the process as difficult as possible, because my post code was missing from land registry they told me a needed to get a solicitor to change this info, crazy as a previous company had already approved my application without hoops and hurdle's to jump through.

plumbers excellent i would use them again Electrician phoned said he would come this afternoon...waited and waited...phoned him and phoned him..no answer...eventualy he called said he couldnt do today..i explained the system was using my extension which i needed for the weekend,,,told me he was stuck on a job(why didnt he phone ME)....the job would be passed to someone else next week...not happy,,,,,,,0800 phoned me to apologise electriciian calling mon (its fri today)...seems electrician is a contractor,,,,,,,,in addition,,,,,,,originally the plumbers and the asbestos removal were arranged for the same day(asbestos in boiler).....I was asked to pay the full amount up front(just short of £2000)..I was dubiuos but paid..THEN i got a phone call saying the asbestos removal couldnt happen on the agreed date and they would have to put it back !!,,,,I tpld them the date was arranged and they should keep to it (we had been without heating for 4 weeks)....they suggested i put the bolier in my garage ,,i told them it was a workshop,,,they then suggested my shed,,,i told them like 90% of sheds it is full.....they then suggested i keep it in my house!!!!! SERIOUSLY?????....I was put thru to the manager ,,,i told him if it was wrapped they could leave it behind a secure gate on my drive....which they did ,,NOT WRAPPED. So I waited on monday for the electrician.until 4pm....I phoned and was told he would be there before 5PM...you guessed it HE DIDNT TURN UP....I have wasted 10 hrs over 2 days waiting....unable to use washing machine...tumble dryer...dish washer etc in case he need to turn electric off....also the original electrician agreed with the plumbers to refit my cupboard doors.when I was put thru to electricians they said they MAY refit them.absolutely APPALLING service.....took my money changed the arrangements...my wife is disabled ,,I am 74 not in the best of health.......would I use this company again ...WHAT DO YOU THINK !

Awful service and performance. One engineer came round to fix a broken tumble dryer - no improvement at all. Another engineer came a few weeks later with a new part - said it would fix the problem - the whole appliance stopped working completely. Doesn’t work at all now. Multiple emails to customer contact who refused to sympathise and took no further action. Thanks for coming round breaking my stuff and getting paid for - absolute shambles and a total rip off joke.

I had a problem with my brand new dishwasher. An engineer came out and fixed it however dropped it and broke all of the legs off it. He re-ordered the legs and said it would take 2 weeks. Another engineer then comes to the house and the first engineer had not ordered enough legs. 2 weeks later another engineer comes out and the legs won’t go in because there is part of the broken leg still inside. No one contacts me. I put in a complaint and no one acknowledged it. I had to call them and eventually they gave me a replacement code and told me to take it back to wren kitchens who we initially bought it off. I’m still going through this process and I’m 2 months without a dishwasher. I emailed over another complaint and still no response, acknowledgment or apology. AVOID this company!!

Absolute cowboys and that’s being kind to them! Save your money and go elsewhere. They are a complete waste of time and have butchered my appliance. 5 visits and they still haven’t got a clue what the issue is! Incompetent!

I had to wait more than two weeks and he showed up with wrong spare parts not fit for the applicant so I have to wait another weeks to get my applicant back to work.. I am very disappointed to have AEG applicant which i bought November 2021 and my warranty is on but who will repair to work it again I will never buy it again.

Called me earlier today to rearrange a appointment, then I received a text to say appointment scheduled for 2 weeks as part has not arrived?? Part was there when I called in the morning, then I'm told it was lost?? Honestly you could not make it up, also because LG warranty job, no concern for the customer. AVOID!!!

Absolutely useless. Three attempts to fix a simple problem on our dryer. Wrong parts, no shows, lack of follow up. Waste of time

0800 is an Absolute Joke. 1st engineer visit 28th Jan. main motor seal gone, ordered a new main motor. 2nd engineer visit 7th Feb, a faulty part was supplied, another visit needed. 3rd engineer visit booked for the 17th Feb. What kind of an operation is this??? I’ll pay someone else to fix it.

Terrible! Called before Christmas 2021 to report fault and book repair, 3 weeks later no one called so called back. They has no excuse why I had not been followed up they theyn took another one 8 days to send engineer, and when he arrived he didn’t have the parts even though they had had an extensive report on what was wrong with the machine. That was 2 weeks ago and not heard back since!!! I’ve just called and they said they cannot tell me when this will be repaired as they need the parts which they don’t have!! Absolutely terrible, I’m now going to complain to AO

Absolutely awful. They installed our boiler. The pipe they were meant to come back and sort back in march. Of course didn't cause any issues going into the warmer weather. Now been without heating and hot water for over a month. Everytime I ring they say I'll get a call back which never happens. Have now reported to gassafe. Have two children under the age of 4 aswell. Ideal even came out as they refused to come before they'd been and they've said the people who installed it need to come and sort the pipe. Awful company

I have warranty through Hisense who have instructed this company and I have been waiting for a dishwasher repair since 4th November. An engineer came out on the 12th November and confirmed that the issue was down to a faulty part that needed to be replaced. A follow up appointment was booked for 15th December advising that an engineer would arrive between 8-9.....no one turned up. Upon logging into the portal I could see my Hisense repair had been cancelled so I called the helpdesk who advised that the repair was still ongoing but were still awaiting parts? To date, 04/01 I have had no further communication or updates so have now been nearly two months without my appliance. Shocking customer service.

0800 Repair was tasked by my insurance company to fix my gas cooker, making 3 unsuccessful visits, with every appointment cancelled and rescheduled. First visit (5639591): The cooker partially repaired, however gas the burner kept extinguishing. Reporting this problem, I phoned all day, the calls were unanswered, as was the message left on their website. Eventually making contact was told to make a new claim with my insurance company. Second visit (5781536): A different engineer made adjustments, advising that a new part was required if the problem persisted, which it did. Third visit (6639168): A different engineer didn’t bring the required part (I explained ongoing problem beforehand), advising that it would be ordered and fitted. From the time of booking this last visit to the next would have been well over 2-months, due to multiple cancelled and rescheduled appointments. My insurance company, Domestic & General, were excellent when informed, replacing the appliance and cancelling the repair. Days later I received a text from 0800 repair advising me that my booked appointment was again rescheduled. 0800 Repair customer service is the worst that I have experienced.

Do not take out warranty with this company and do not book with them. The worse company Completrly unreliable and zero customer service. 1st December ordered part only thermocouple booked for 7th December come through 7th wrong engineer booked so now I have to wait until 17th then 8am 17th engineer calls been to postoffice my part not there!! Yes that the part ordered on the 1st confirmed it arrived on 5th to be fitted on 7th but suddenly the post office that is open at 8am on morning of appointment don’t have part 🤔 really after my complaining engineer turns up late afternoon no parts can’t do nothing and will get part and fit Saturday, you guessed Saturday came and went not even a call. After me calling promised someone will be here on 31st to fit part. We now have no cooking facilities all Christmas. 30th late afternoon I get text saying appointment booked for 5th January no explanation no call nothing. Absolutely disgrace and now no cooler nee year as well. I would 100 per cent give this company a miss 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
