Our nearly new Zanussi cooker decided to short circuit last night. As a result there was a loud bang and the 60 Amp fuse upsteam of the meter blew. I don't know why the 30 Amp fuse in the cooker spur did not blow. We have an old fashioned fuse box, no RCDs.
Anyway we were left with no electricty. We rang Powergen (who supply us) and they came out within 1 hour and replaced their fuse at no charge.
Very good service I think.
not so good with Zanussi: we ring the shop we bought the cooker from: "ring Zanussi", so we ring the number in the Zanussi appliance book. After sitting though a recorded message containing a huge list of postcodes (not including ours) we are directed to ring another number. We ring it and get along list of manufacturers. We select Zanussi, get redirected back ot the first number.
sorry to rant...
