20th December 2010 my Cannon Kendal cooker was delivered it came with a FREE 5yr PARTS GUARANTEE which gave me peace of mind.
Domestic & General said to cover me for 'labour charge' it would cost £5.99 a month. Having paid a great deal for my cooker, we two days later had to cancel as the fee was an extra expence we could not afford at the time & I said I would take it out later.
On 18th April 2012 I called Domestic & General to take out the 'labour charge' policy as half of my grill would not work (can be used full or half).
The call handler told me the cost would be £15.79 monthly. I told him I was told the cost was £5.99 monthly. He said that price was then the price now was £15.79 or £189.48 a year.
I called Domestic & General today, 23rd 2012 to cancel & said I'd just like the part instead. The call handler said I couldn't have the 'FREE' part without taking out the 'labour call out policy' & further "had I not read the small print". What a RIPOFF.
Therefore I have had to pay the £31.51 for two months & £15.79 per month afterward or not have the use of a full grill.
The engineer representing Cannon came this afternoon but did not have the part with him although it clearly showed on his laptop screen & hopefully will come Friday with part.
My quip is that: I was not told initially that the monthly cost would go up if I didn't take out the 'labour call out policy' that day, had I been told so I would have scraped the money together. Its a total RIPOFF. One should be told when speaking in the first instance. Is there anything I can do.
