Well, with the car insurance check out 123.ie. They seem to beat everybody hands down. And get someone else to check that boiler incase it can be repairerd. I find it strange they have to change the entire boiler.conversing

hi GG i priced a load of car insurance companys and the one im with is still the cheapest.... as for gas boiler... was told the circuit board and fan are gone... to fix would be eighteen hundred.. where as a new one works out better as he told me its 10 years old and parts are expensive to get for it...
but im going to get a second quote from another company.

id get a second oppinion on the gas boiler ,they are built to last,its easy for someone to say you need a new one,and they would have the work from it.was it board gais that looked at it.

What kind of gas boiler have you got, make, model etc. and what kind of one are you getting in???
I know a new condensing one will set you back just over a 1k and if itd a straight swap then he shouldnt be charging 1500 quid for it, ring around as many plumbers as you can, don necessarily go with the cheapest eitherconversing

123.ie are ok if you intend on seeing out the policy but if you cancel a few months in they will almost take the full amount quoted anyway, Thats the scam with that crowd, also they dont even ask if you have a drivers licence when you get a quote, I heard of people who had lost their licences in court but were still able to get insured by 123.ie
