My cooker has now been repaired !!!
It took barely 15 mins to repair and I'm £99.11 lighter ......... but so relieved they could get it going and I don't have to go looking for a new one!!

What a price! No wonder we tend to throw away rather than mend

Blimey that was steep! How much was the call out fee, and how much was the repair!!

Materials : £23.39
Labour : £55.00
VAT: £13.72

The call out fee must be included with the labour cost......

So it cost £55 for a 15 minute repair!

Yes, that's why I think the call out fee is included in that as there is no other mention of it on the receipt

If my dryer had not still been under warrenty, it would have cost me £93... for fitting a belt!!!it took him 23 minutes...

Bloomin rip off!!!!

I'm so pleased you are back up and running again Mags! and you must be so relieved that a repair was possible rather than having to replace it.

Thanks Fran, I am relieved ....... that cooker cost £700 six years ago so I hate to think what I would have to pay for a new one today

quite a bit

Cookers seem to be one "white" goods that haven't come down a lot in price.
