For all other Club Energy Members..

I just found out today (and confirmed by Glowworm) that if you sell one of their 15 year warranties - Vailliant Group Service must do the servicing..

Means I have miss-sold to some customers (told them I would do the servicing) - and done my self out of servicing forever for these customers.

I can predict huge problems with this policy - 8 years down the line, you have been doing the annual service, and Glowworm walk away from their warranty..

Be warned, and pass on!

Regards
Colin
 
They told us about it during our Vaillant course and told us not to bother with the 15 year warrenty as you'd be doing yourself out of work....

Who was the "head honcho" Billy?

My understanding is the same as the OP. Although, to be fair to Glow-worm, I don't think that they ever concealed it. I recall threads on here discussing it a year or more ago.
 
Just some bloke who kept buying him drinks at the copacobanna wearing a glowworm fleece.
 
Ha no, glow worm/vailliants main sales guy popped into a training day and proudly said about it.
this was last summer, i questioned the point of them taking over just the end of the servicing to get a replacement and get just smiled. Martin something i think?

obviously he talked out of his backside or they changed it?
