How a burst pipe and rejected insurance claim left one woman with an £86,000 repair bill.

How a burst pipe and rejected insurance claim left one woman with an £86,000 repair bill, all thanks to a condition in the small print.

The team comes to the aid of customers who feel they are fighting a David and Goliath battle, including one single mum landed with an £86,000 repair bill after a burst pipe devastated her new home and her insurer refused to pay out. Also, the broadband firms who failed to make switching simple – leaving some customers running out of patience, and in the advice clinic, the team helps one woman forced to cook Christmas dinner on a camping stove when two brand new cookers broke down.
