What is a Repair Protection Plan? A Repair Protection Plan is a simple way to avoid the cost and hassle of repairing electrical products. It's like your manufacturer's guarantee, but you can keep the peace of mind for as long as you want. Plus, it's better than a guarantee, because it includes damage caused by accidents. How does it work? It takes the hassle and expense out of breakdowns. If your product breaks down or is damaged by accident, all you have to do is:
Why choose a Repair Protection Plan? If your product breaks down, we'll repair it. If an accident damages your product, we'll repair it. If we can't repair it, we'll give you a brand new replacement product. In other words, you don't have to worry about repair bills. Repair Protection Plan gives you peace of mind. The advantages for you include: No unexpected repair bills. Protection that includes damage caused by accidents. Call-out, parts and labour charges all included. Repairs by quality-approved, authorised engineers. No limit to the number of repairs you can claim. New for old replacement if we can't repair your product. Protection by the specialists The plan is provided by Domestic & General, the specialists in electrical product protection. D&G have been protecting appliances in Britain's homes for over 50 years and protect over 5 million products.
