Re: Approved Electrical Connections
Squadman protests his innocence, sorry but you got personal and what you wrote came from no where and for no good reason. I will stand by my last post.

you are looking to blame someone or confirm that whoever did the poor connection has broken the law,
And Pray may I ask why should someone not ask if the connection method is legal ? that was a perfectly legitimate topic asked out of a genuine concern and in conjunction with what I had read elsewhere. You made that tenuous link in your own mind, when I questioned that angle I do fear you then made sarcastic mockery which may just be your sense of humour which I missed and which had no intent meant.
One things for sure though, as its an open forum anyone can join in and have their say, I think its clear that you proceeded to hand out unwanted advice and then went on to suggest that I may be looking to blame or cause bother all of which is untrue, therefore are we to glean from your statement that its ok for you try and take the mickey and when others join in you whinge,
Have a pleasant Day !
Re: Approved Electrical Connections
You asked for advice on a forum, wanted or not, you can freely choose which advice to take or ignore, whichever fits with your opinion which you have done, sarcastic or not my advice was the same as others. Your mockery of what i sell and the county i live in was unwarranted and personal, and i took exception to it, why you did that who knows, but please dont make me out to be the bad guy who cant take a joke, i have been in the game 32 years, trust me i can take a joke, what i dont like is when i am mocked for what ii do or where i live.

And to add you clearly was looking to see if it was legal what had been done and what action if any could be taken

Absolute Rubbish Dear Doc, your post was antagonistic with design, as regards my humour that is subjective, you did not appreciate it where others did! thats humour I am afraid like it or not. Your entitled to your own views, opinions or whatever be they right or wrong just like the other forum members. I cannot help but conclude you have taken this far too seriously as other members know you do not sell Cream Teas, it was a geographical joke Period as was Martins Tractor reference, purely harmless I can assure you and as anyone can see ! Goodness me have you nothing else to do ?
Re: Approved Electrical Connections
Only your opinion squadman and as you say its my own opinion that you were being personal, so i refer you back to my post referencing your dickhead humour, as in my opinion it is just that!
My replies to your original question may have been humourous or slightly sarcastic but they did answer your question. Your posts in reference to me were purely to wind me up and not in connection to your question.
And yes i do have better things to do, so i will not be posting on this thread any more, and i will be mindful not to offer any input on any other questions or advice you ask for in the future.

At last you have got it ! I am sure that this will be the best possible course of action and I thank you for highlighting the Dickhead reference once again, very helpful I am sure, this will allow other members to form their own opinions of someone who feels free to use that kind of useless and derogatory terminology which was completely uncalled for.
Lets not forget it is you that has the letter D in your user name:

As an update, The customer has called me and it turns out they found a card statement which proved DOP, Hotpoint have called and have refused to work on the appliance. The job looked like bother from the off and I am glad I walked away.

Re: Approved Electrical Connections
Hi Squadman: Seems like a good call mate to be honest, did they state the reason for not working on the appliance ? around here they seem to use any excuse possible to deny warranty repairs.
Re: Approved Electrical Connections
As far as I can make out because the flex from the appliance was not hardwired into the fixed spur directly and that it did not have a Plug fitted the Engineer aborted the job. Poor ole customer is now left with this situation and why for lords sake the guy who supplied this machine did’nt just use a recognised method of connection this would have saved this predicament. Such is life I have advised the customer to try a seek a solution via her card provider to see if she can get anywhere.
Re: Approved Electrical Connections
Seems to be 1 of their favourites that, the appliance is not fitted with it’s original moulded plug so Guarantee is void. They must save a packet on this over a year.

Do you not think though, and possibly with the benefit of hindsight even, that had you simply inserted an approved in-line connector your customer would not now be in this predicament? That the under warranty breakdown would have gone ahead as the attention would not have been drawn toward the mains lead?
Re: Approved Electrical Connections
Think might / might not is the answer Martin, an old neighbour has a Hoptoint washing machine in her fitted kitchen that went faulty under warranty. The engineer that came out refused to work on the appliance as the plug had been removed & the mains lead fed through the worktop Directly into a switched fused spur & this is’nt Hotpoints approved connection method. I think at the end of the day it comes down to the individual engineer & what sort of day he’s had.
