This is what I know;
They are going to offer a complete boiler installation package.
Initially offering only Worcester Bosch boilers. Boilers will only be sold to fitters who can earn Clubcard points if they purchase.
Installations will be carried out by local tradesmen through a managing agent.
Prices start from £1999 for a fully installed new boiler. (I don't think that's excessively low, but what will they pay the fitter?)

I'm not liking this news, most customers will think of Tesco as a 'trusted' name, and i'd imagine they will be offering some form of low cost finance option also.
I think it will be the low cost finance option that will probably be more of an attraction, rather than the "trusted" Tesco name.
It still would have been cheaper if they got a small loan from the bank and paid you through that.

It was only a matter of time before this happened.
Tesco, driving down prices is the slogan. If their heating contracts are anything like any other supplier they use there will be little to be made and the driving down prices bit means the supplier gets less.
I do work for a couple of local farmers who are now basically at the mercy of the big supermarkets as to what they make with little other option. They all hate having to use them but there is little other option.
This trade is moving the same way as farming. In a few more years most of the decent money making work will be done by the big players for many different reasons.

I learned a long time ago that most people would rather sign up for a credit agreement in front of them (no matter what the interest rate) than do any leg work themselves to sort out their own loan.
£15 /week sounds better than 2 grand when you are skint.
