    Household claim worthwhile for an exploding cooker door?

    Surely their replacement of the glass would be to a high standard? For €170, I'd be taking the chance. Unless it's a known fault, I'd have no problem with replacement glass. I certainly wouldn't be going through insurance. Not worth it. Replace glass or buy a new one (different make of course).

    The bottom line is that it's stealing. It doesn't matter if the money is used for a good cause or not. If something is wrong, it's wrong. Not partly wrong.

    Askaboutmoney Favicon Too Small

    I'd be slow to change from AAM... why? Because, that's what the forum/domain/site is called. A €? symbol would be totally unrelated and unrecognisable. I messed about with the AAM favicon for a bit, and I don't think you'll be able to get 3 capital letters any clearer in such a small image. I...
