I think our fridge is on its way out.. we've just had ice cream and it hadn't melted but was softish!! I've shifted things around hoping the door wasn't shut properly.. have closed it and fingers crossed will be ok???

We've just done our shopping as well... hope its fine

You checked the temp control thing on it? Or does it need a good defrost?

Fingers crossed Ang!

no not long been defrosted.. its about 11 year old like.. how long do they normally live???

not sure but its had a good life then!!

Good luck Ang, I hope it's ok!

A fridge freezer was one of the last things I bought on a credit card. Our old one (which was only 4 years old!) kept switching off, and I didn't trust it any more.

My Mum's last fridge lasted 30 years, so there may be life in it yet Angela! If you do need to get a replacement, and have not built up enough contingency for this, then have a word with your IP who will probably be able to let you miss one payment in order to pay for a replacement.

thanks Melanie.. we haven't enough in contingency.. but fingers crossed will not come to that!! but I will have a word with my IP if I get desperate!!

30 years they don't make things like they used to.. or was it like triggers broom renewed from inside!!

hubbys been working overtime and paying extra over. if we had to miss a payment would we still have to make it up as well as paying future overtime over?

Oh no its when things happen like this that i miss the old plastic. Hope your fridge is soon better

Hi ang

May not be any use but give the seal around the door a good wipe and check its sealing properly.
Hope it is just a hiccup and all is well.
If hubby pays his overtime over I would see if you could keep that month to replace it. They can only say no.

Ang, do yo have a local freecycle? If so maybe worth a look, you'd be surprised what people give away free! My friend got a fridge recently and it was in mint condition, person was getting rid 'cos they had just moved and had integrated appliances.
