hi all i inevitability a new gas column installed rang national grid severely unhelpful.we did a live or motionless check on a old pipe it be dead...ive already get a gas metre at the property however its for the 1st floor flat and need one for the ground floor...they told me that they cant use the existing antediluvian pipe and its a 8week wait for a clean pipe any advise would be great..appreciation all
I had a similar experience ultimate year.
I would use the website to send contained by a complaint about the lead-time. The thrust of your complaint is that the involve is urgent and that the NG is the only supplier allowed to do this work by regulation - so you don't have a choice.
On my provider (southern gas network), the website have a link to the Chief Exec - and I used it. Somebody call me back in 24 hours and speeded up the process.
The staff that contact you / or you call up are trained not to chip away at, and reduce the lead-time, so you've get to get above their head!
The provider company is using a sub-contractor to do the actual connection - so they can ask them to do job in any directive that they wish - hold yelling and hold on to pushing your complaint home.
Good Luck.
I'm not far from you
Fraid you dont own much choice,its before the meter and thats upto who ever supplies the gas, IF it be after the mete I could help
The singular thing I could suggest is recall them and tell them you enjoy a combi boiler and a (maybe a couple) baby and a couple of kids and you cant dust or bathe the tot or the kids you have no hot hose down (its got to be a combi boiler though, no cylinder to use the immersion heater)
Another entry is you have a gas cooker and you cant grill the babies food or feed the kids, you cant sterilise the babies bottles
You will really enjoy to put on the sob stories and make them convincing and hold on to calling them (every day if call for be)
Good luck
Answers: Gas is a safekeeping thing!! dont mess near it unless yu want to blow up the house!
a 8 week wait for a unsullied utility supply is very brisk for my water company its 6 months!! even BT contribute a 12 week standard service for a new row.
The National Grid are the ONLY people who are allowed to fit a unusual supply pipe (and meter) so ther is really no optionn but to wait.
look on the bright side its summer you wont call for gas for heating for a few months anyway. if its with the sole purpose for cooking whats wrong with an electric cooker frequent flats have them on safekeeping grounds the block I lived in Gas be Banned totally for safety reason! and another block you HAD to provide and annual gas safety qualification to the managing agents even if you lived in your own place.
Gas contained by Flats can be a very uncertain thing so if you don't call for it dont have it otherwise if its for heat then in recent times wait the 8 weeks.
if your'e selling dont verbs the buyers strike will probably go on longer than the 8 weeks anyway!
