1.2 We will arrange for an engineer visit to diagnose and repair your appliance if we believe there to be a fault. There are no limits to the number of repair calls you can make.

1.4 If we cannot reasonably arrange for a suitable replacement, we may opt to give you store credit vouchers instead. The vouchers will be for the price of the similar appliance we have offered and not exceed the maximum plan values as stated in 1.3

What are the limits of the plan? 

2.1 No limit to the number of repairs you can request. You must have paid a minimum of 40% of the cost of the plan to qualify for the repair service.

The plan must have been in place for a minimum of forty five days to qualify for either the repair or replacement options.

If you miss any agreed payments, the exclusion period of 45 days will stop and will resume when your payments recommence. You confirmed that at the time of purchasing the plan, that your appliance is in good working order. Your appliance will not be covered if modified in a manner not approved by the manufacture
