Contact Foster today 0843 216 8822 service@foster-uk.com fosterrefrigerator.co.uk/choices Beware the hidden costs: > How many visits to your site will be needed? And does the technician need to order parts and return to site more than once? > Will the fault be diagnosed correctly first time? > How long should it take to fix a problem? > Do the parts actually need to be replaced? > Are parts genuine and what are you being charged for them? Traditional schemes can hide a variety of such costs, where a cheap call-out can soon snowball into a huge bill. Not so with Foster Assist.
