Card reading boiler guts sound expensive to me, manufacturers won't like it as they will either raise price and sell less or swallow the costs and make less.
 
We don't need any of these really. What we need is to be more like the Far East, and remove a hand every time they're caught messing with gas and or apliances.

Or they should make it where you have to be gas safe registered to buy anything gas related.

All this as been looked at in the past when CORGI were running gas registration , all they could come up with is it would be classed as restrictive practice and that is not allowed, think that the DIY outlets complained about it as well, nothing can be done about stopping what is going on , it boils down to customer wanting everything done on the cheep, most don't care who does the job and its becoming more frequent , I've just spent out again to do CCN1 beginning to wonder if it was worth the time & money, only people who seem to care if we are registered is G/Safe and that seems all to do with them making money of us

My favoutie thing to do when im in screwfix or B&q when someone asks are you a plumber, or if one of the staff who recognize me points a customer in my direction when one of them is trying to do something themselves is tell them what they need, but not in the simplest way or just tell them they need something completely random

Please don't take offence: Plumben or anyone.


Then you have sites like this that give have Plumbers giving out free and skilled advice to DIY'ers. including how to rectify and remedy problems that are encountered when doing DIY installation.

Look at the posts and questions by 'Gungaabayar' - self declared DIY'er.

What's more astounding is the answers given by plumbers to help him out.
He states that he is worried about costs - so what, so is everyone.

But at the end of the day, he is asking trade specific questions on how to do things.
The things he is asking, and getting answers for, are things that plumbers have experienced and remedied throughout their own experiences. - And they're giving the solutions to this person for nothing.

He stuffed something up and called a plumber in to help him solve it - maybe no one here was online at the time.

Some random plumber not on this site got some dough - I bet he's happy

Once again - no offence to anyone.

Very true ^^^

I made a thread about that other week about how its coming more common on here for people to ask more in depth questions about hope to do this or that .

Just call a plumber !!!!!

Got a mechanic friend who always gets accosted for repair questions on cars he just says now bring it down the garage and we will have a look .

Bet most don't
