    CH only works when HW on (no HW off on programmer)

    You would be better off installing the heat link next to wiring center and disconnecting the old programmer. If the blue turns out it’s not the same cable either end then you could install a relay to act the same as HW OFF.

    Does anyone accept monthly payments?

The consumer credit licence is about £500 but you would be best using a company that specialised in obtaining them and...

    Multi Zone heating problem

    The three port will always be open one way. When the UFH is calling the flow is also going around your rads. As said above changing to three two ports is the way forward. You only need the pipe work re-jigging and one more 2port as you already have one on the UFH and another on the HW.
