Jasmina Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Heylo, Today my washing machine decided to stop draining water, I've cleaned the drain pump and removed a load of hair clips. I then ran a 2nd wash and it refused to drain. Any other ideas?It's 8 years old. Repair or replace?Thanks.

DaveR Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Call Cliff, washing machine repair man much recommended on this forum. A quick search should turn up his number.

Lost Yorkshire Man Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I had this prob. I disconnected the pipe (after draining) and found a one pence piece stuck at the end.

Sandperson Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I was badly let down by Cliff recently.Call Alex instead: 020 8692 7959. He made good on the foul up by Cliff and didn't charge me until I had fully tested the repair. He worked hard and for a long period of time and came out twice. Very, very helpful.

Jasmina Posted July 5, 2010 Author Share Posted July 5, 2010 Thanks Lostyorkshireman, I thought about that but I'm a mere snip of a female and cant pull out my washing machine :(( I've already called Cliff, he is coming this evening.If he messes up then I'll call Alex, thanks for the feedback Sandperson.x Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/12105-washing-machine-advice/#findComment-338573 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambobia Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I'd add a recommendation for Cliff: on time, honest, identified the problem, reasonable charge. Wouldn't hesitate to call again.

Drxyster Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I second the reccomendation for Alex, did a great job on our dishwasher at such a cheap price. I had to give him a tenner more than he asked for, so I could sleep at night without feeling guilty Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/12105-washing-machine-advice/#findComment-339248 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasmina Posted July 7, 2010 Author Share Posted July 7, 2010 Update - Chris showed up 45 mins late on Monday (2 mins before I had to leave for work) and made a snappy diagnosis, but couldnt come back again until Wed (today). Called Alex 3 times on Tuesday (yesterday)and he never returned any of my calls, even though his voicemail message changed throughout the day. Called Chris again today and he reckons he'll be with me by 6pm this evening.Hopefully Chris will sort it tonight as I need clean clothes!The quest continues...
