Got called to a job and long story short the gledhill seagull hot water cylinder is split and leaking through he bedroom ceiling.

I issolated the supply and drained down etc.

The old lady discovered her Homeserve so called insurance documents so I said I would call on her behalf.

After loads of trash on the phone (45 minutes) they finaly said she was covered and they would send someone within 4 -6 hours.

This is my greif ! I did explain in great detail I MEAN GREAT DETAIL What the problem was and they said she was covered with the insurance

Anyway young chap turns up Nice lad, He had never even seen a system like this and said no way they are gonna cover this.

System is a simple Y plan boiler down stairs tank in loft etc

I ended up removing the seagull striping it down and brazing the split just to get her going over the holiday period

THE MESSAGE IS DO NOT PAY HOMESERVE
 
The homeserve man can lmao, job every 30 seconds there suppose to be doing, sound just as bad as BG lol.
 
Have only just realised that after doing a boiler installation and registering for the guarranty, Homeserve step in and sign up "my" customer within days and do the first service on my Vaillant ecoTec plus which has a two year guarranty. You have to look close at the registration card and tick the boxes to block out third parties which Homeserve are
