Its the landlords which is worse - How much more in this house will break? It will cost £93 for the service guy just to come out? Well sod that I'm buying my own washing machine - Another £100 would get me that!

Found a hotpoint reduced from £280 to £255 or another reduced to £262 with a £25 code off & 2.5% cashback on Quidco saving another £5 so be £225 or £232 ... Still pissed off I don't have the money to do this shit!

wobbles our washingmachine went just before x-mas cost us £90 for new electronics and it still wasnt fixed 4 weeks later and the guy refused to come back out to fix it or give us our money back
up here their is a place called remploye recycle what they do is all the washingmachines ect that get up lifted by the ouncil, instead of them going to teh dump they go to this place and get re furbished and thast where we got our hotpoint one for £60 and its a great wee one :wink:
Think I'd rather get a new one with a decent reputation now!

what page you looking at brittish heart foundation
they are fully reconditioned items! they are reputable makes of machines ie hotpoint whirrelpool service straight from the manufacture with original parts spares ect so basicly its a brand new machine in a newly painted and up graded body :P
plus its eco friendly as it doesnt end up in a landfill sight
so sorry if that didnt help i thought it would have been nice to share what we done to get ours and it saved us loads of money too

cool link weestar, I had never heard of that, its a really good idea. Why is it that it is always so hard to find out about really good schemes like this, its almost as if councils dont want to promote them.
