So I chased and eventually got an update from them: The main electrician has looked into this and agrees. He has therefore amended the certificate so that it is satisfactory. Please find attached So they have reversed the C2 finding, as I thought they would, and re-issued the cert - until I...

I just sent them a note advising them that i have had the report looked at, sent them the quoted parts and asked them if they still think its correct - will see what the "Sales Advisor" (another red flag) comes back with this time, then will let loose with complaints to BG and associations etc...

Yeah - that's what i figured - have pinged a couple of local electricians with good reviews and a friend of a friend to get some alternative options and quotes for the work, like i said I don't mind doing the work if it's worth it for the tenants - eventually we are likely to move back into the...

Its in south east london (orpington) and its fairly big, its either a 3 bed 3 reception, or a 4 bed 2 reception detached house, 1936 with extensions over the years. We went with BG because it seemed to be simple as we have the cover from them for the heating / boiler which has been pretty...

The inspection was arranged through British Gas, we have the landlord coverage for the heating systems with them, this was our house in the UK before we moved to the USA, and was previously owned by an electrician (No idea if thats good or bad!). The inspection cost 234.99 from British Gas.

I think it is sort of correct - the 5th one is marked as a spare, some do appear to have incorrect ratings on the report, a 10A is listed as a 6A. I will go back to them with the codes and findings and see what they say.

Whole report is here:

The whole report is below - it came with a cover letter that warns of Urgent issues and a cost of 985GBP +VAT to resolve, lots of warnings about fines etc. but nothing on the actual work required. Only when i pushed them on it did they come back with the very vague responses. My last note to...

Thanks for that - I will check out their website and see who they are registered with - the report was arranged through British Gas but looks like it was outsourced to a local firm. They quoted 985 +VAT for the repairs, which is essentially replace the current CU with a compliant one, their...

That's my thinking as well, I have questioned it, their response is that the detail (C3 on P8) is wrong - but that doesn't sit right with me looking at the description text which would align to a C3 item (Like every line above it for stickers??? does and are allC3) The cynic in me says someone...

That was my thought, then looking at the fact that its a C3 on the details and the text on the summary page says Recommended improvement, but has been amended to a C2 got my suspicions up that someone may have either mistakenly transcribed it, or worse, upped it on the summary but not changed...

I can attach anything by the looks of it - looks like i need 10 posts? 

Hi, I just got an EICR completed for a rental property and it has a C2 on the summary page for 4.18 RCD protection, I have a couple of questions n this one as i think they are potentially looking for work to do. The main body of the report in the details section the same 4.18 is listed as a C3...
