I have had the worst experience I have ever experienced as this company should have been removed long time ago had everyone who had been scammed by them have taken a legal action against them. They deceived me to take morey for boiler repair after I called them and agreed to repair my boiler for £49+VAT only and when they arrived they told me I ah e to pay £576 and they will come back to do the work next day. I told them that is not what was agreed over the phone and I can only pay £49+VAT or they have to leave and they fused and insisted to pay them what he asked for. I offered them to pay £49+VAT as a call out charge although that amount was agreed to repair my boiler. Long story short they made me pay the amount whey demanded as they refused to leave with £49+VAT and they were blocking my flat. After making the payment, I called their boss Scott who is a big lier to cancel the job and refund me fully or take £49+VAT as I offered his colleagues after explaining to him that the have been misleading me and scared unprofessionally and scary and so on, which he refused to accept but he agreed to send me a full refund within 30 to 40 mins which did not happen although I waited for one to two days and after that I was calling each day but eh keep hung up the pie on me and finally they blacked my number. When I called from a friend number, they answered as they thought I was a new customer they can play games with but when they found out it was me they beloved that number as well and finally I called from another number and gave them a warning that I will take a legal action but Scott the liar hung up on me and I immediately applied to a court to bring them to justice recover my money that I earned from work unlike them who wanted to literally steal my money without giving any service. I encourage everyone who suffered humiliation and other bad experiences and lost money because of this scammer company who should not exist in the first place and be removed form company house had any one took action against them. All the best.

I have paid Plunger £450 but failed in everything.
The boiler Glow- worm still not working after 7 days.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! This is an updated review following the post on 07.11.24. This company have still not refunded the money I paid to them despite it being now over two months since they unlawfully took my funds. I have been without heating all this time.
I have called them, sent emails and pleaded for help without success. They simply respond to my posts with we do not know the person called ‘Stephen’. I am posting from my father’s account ‘Stephen’ and they know this. They are trying (again) to mislead. They know my name is Jack M and they attended my flat in at Matilda gardens, Bow on 01.10.24 and asked for a payment on account of £336. They then did NOT do the work. I have called them and either had the phone deliberately put down or been lied to by Scott, who they seem to use to avoid payment. I emailed them on 25.10.24 at 15.52 and they replied (see below). Rather than simply stating that they do not have a customer called Stephen (my father) just read your emails for that date and you will see one form Jack M. I do not have an invoice number because they never gave me one!! They never came to do the work so how can I have an involve!!
HOW LONG WILL THEY LEAVE ME IN THIS STATE WITHOUT HEARTING? I have lodged a complaint with trading standards and am taking court proceedings/
PLEASE STAY AWAY FORM THIS COMPANY AND PLUNGER LIMITED – they will take your money and not perform the work leaving you in a horrible state.

Would not recommend this company! They charged us £3300 for a boiler installation and installed a very cheap boiler. The boiler never worked and the two engineers that fitted it never came back to fix the issue. No refund was issued. I contacted the manufacturer who could not service the boiler due to being 'at risk' (not installed correctly). Had to fit a brand new boiler instead.

AVOID THIS FRADULENT COMPANY BY ALL MEANS. I always review companies prior to using them and I am kicking myself that I did not do this here as would have been prepared and NEVER of given them a penny had I of seen these scammers reviews!!!

The guy that they sent to do the job said it would cost £300 pounds, I then said that seemed to high so I would rather get another quote he convinced me that no one will do it cheaper, within 24 hours the boiler was not working again. I call them straight back and Scott who lied and told me someone would return to fix on 3 occasion's. Why he would make someone miss three days off work CLEARLY knowing no one is coming is beyond me!!

The so called engineers that come out are also working in the scam as he was also trying to get a call out fee ontop of the £300. He called me twice trying to get more money whilst at the property to which I said no!

I am now having to pay someone else twice to carry out the same job that was not carried out waiting in for three days in which Scott lied and said someone would return to carry out.

I spoke to five other plumbers who advised a brand new part and labour should not of amounted to this cost whatsoever much less them replacing nothing and claiming to have done work.

I have everything recorded and documented and I am currently putting through paperwork to the courts, they will be paying back for the money they ripped off me along with work days rate for not attending along with the stress and all inconveniences caused for waiting in and no one turning up.

I then asked for my money to be refunded back and was told by Scott he is not giving me my money back. I am also going to call the bank now to report this fraudulent transaction.

I will be reporting them to every possible platform to apply action against fraudulent companies and the trading standards agency.

Please do not take this review lightly in 2024 I am soo shocked to see a fraudulent company acting so boldly. I will be pushing for criminal convictions against all involved at this company.

Please also put your reviews on Yell for this fraudulent Company.

I am really the wrong person to try to do this too!

Unfortunately they have there staff writing back to the people who leave bad reviews to make sure they de value people’s experience and gas light you , why would I call back your office when you start hanging up on people, never return calls and un plug the phone , the damage is done you already robbed £900 …notice no apologies , all our experiences are very real and happened with your company so please don’t tell lies my review is real from a real experience from your horrible company put me through not illegal content , however what your doing is illegal

Annual checks, filter replacement and heating sorted within agreed price. Man who came was very professional and tidy. Happy with the service.

Please avoid at all cost! ! This company is charging us £950 for a boiler repair, 2 "engineers' have shown up but the boiler remains broken.Spoken to the " head office" multiple times - they have promised to issue a refund but it's all empty words. They keep putting us on hold and hanging up on us. We have CCTV footage of these "engineers" fixing nothing, charging us and leaving. We will pursue to take legal action. Extremely unprofessional company, they all are scammers!!

Scammers!
We were promised a full refund within three working days, but it never arrived. This company is extremely unprofessional, starting with their manager, Scott, the help desk, and including their engineers, who seem unqualified and lack proper experience or credentials in boiler repair.
After waiting an entire week for the promised refund, on the 20th of November, we were informed that we would not be receiving it. As a result, we will be reaching out to Citizens Advice Bureau for assistance.
If you’ve also been scammed by this company, please report them to the police for fraudulent actions and Trading Standards. It’s crucial to raise awareness about this fraudulent company and prevent others from falling victim.

Booked a next day visit from them to come and take one look at my boiler and say it was broken and needed repairing at a cost of £650+VAT. I said no as I have a friend who is away but I would rather give the money to. The engineer had already left by this point saying the unit was unsafe bit didn't bother to come back and even turn it off so left me to pull out every appliance in my kitchen to try and turn the thing off myself. Almost £60 call out fee for what!? They just get you hooked by leaving the shop to 'call head office' and leaving you no choice but to pay them to come back and finish the job. By the time I'd started pulling out the fridge he'd left anyway to go to another job according to the lady on the phone - load of rubbish. AVOID THIS COMPANY.

Further to review on Plunger Ltd from 19/11/2024, as I have not been contacted for repairs/refund of my £225 deposit - the company have been report to Company House, Fraud Action and Watchdog

What a scam of a company. Took my £150 deposit and did not turn up for the appointment which was scheduled for 08/11/2024. When I chased them late in the afternoon stated that their plumber is messing them about and will send another first thing the following morning. Since then every time I call the man that answers hangs up the call. Refusing to give my money back but I won't let this go as they do not realise I have cameras installed in the front and hallway of my property.

Great service and great staff. I was very impressed with the delivery and the kind of professionalism

They get a star because there is no zero to give. Absolutely scam. They display a cheap price so you can book it but on arrival they quote a unreasonable price. They quoted me 397 pounds and I got it done elsewhere in 50 pounds. So basically they just turned up and with no troubleshooting took the call out charge and disappeared. Help desk people are no different who like to be rude, hang up on you and be unhelpful. Avoid at all costs. Pay a little extra elsewhere with a reliable service. I regret as I didn't see the reviews before booking.

My boiler was fixed by Ryan within one hour of my call.
He was professional, clean and tidy.
Outstanding all round. Highly recommend this company.

This company is the worst company on the face of the earth. I’ve had no hot water for two months (since August) they replaced my old boiler with a cheap lacklustre boiler in May that continued to break and it August it completely packed up. Pimlico plumbers came and said this boiler is not fit for purpose and needs to be replaced as it will keep breaking. Plunger continue to lie they are going to attend and never do. They will put the phone down you when call. Lie they’re on the way, then say they’re waiting for a part. They even created a fake report saying they came and everything was working fine when they did NOT attend. They’re clearly now trying to fake the reviews as I cannot see how this company can get a good review. Everyone’s experience is the same. I have a baby in the house and have to use a kettle to bath him. This company has no morals they are thieves and scammers. STAY AWAY!!!!

Fantastic company and great customer service. I just had a new boiler installed into our house even though there was an initial issue as it was not heating as much as I thought it would. Dennis relocated the thermostat , now the house is perfect and warm. Thank you to him and the customer service team . Quality work, if you are looking for a boiler or just need a repair, this is the company i would 100% recommend!!

Engineer came to service and look into a fault in my 7 year old boiler, through the misinformation I was told, I was persuaded to buy a new one. Due to this the service was not done. I changed my mind the following day and when he returned I told him, very intimidating response. I was told I won't get my money back, he said he wouldn't leave until it was sorted and threatened to cap my gas off. Nearly a month later, I am still waiting to be refunded the money they finally agreed to.
I have finally received the refund.

please avoid this company, i contacted them over a small boiler leak they convinced me i needed a new boiler - shut off all my supply and said i needed to fit a new one asap. i did, the cost was over £2000. the fitted the boiler 3 days later and told me to turn it on 2 hours after they had left. the boiler never worked i contacted them, i was told they would sent someone out, this went on for 9 weeks. i had to call them everyday sometimes up to 3 times per day to beg them to resolve the issue as me and my 5 month old were without hot water. they kept telling me someone would attend the following day and no one every would, over the course of the 9 weeks someone attended twice told me they had fixed the boiler and to leave it off for 2 hours and then turn it off - it never worked. After 9 weeks of getting no where with them i sought legal advice to which i was told i was able to contact another company to rectify this issue and they would have to cover the cost. the new company told me they had fitted the boiler on the completely wrong wiring and blown inside parts of the boiler. the manufacturers had to come out and replace the boiler. I was told by plunger i would be receiving compensation over 3 weeks ago, still yet to receive it and now they have blocked my number so i will be taking the case back to the lawyer. oh they also delete reviews from their site

Please do not use this company!!! They came quickly to assess the boiler and took half payment for the works but did not return to do the work. You call the call centre and they keep saying that they will be there within the hour. Totally unprofessional. Giving them 1 star is too high. Again DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!!
