Enforce a time limit of 2 months for Hotpoint to repair/replace faulty dryers

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Thousands of customers have been left with potentially lethal dryers from Hotpoint. Little seems to be getting done to rectify the problem with the majority of customers being told it could take upto 12 months to repair the dryer. Customers are being told to buy a new lesser spec model for £99.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. This is the responsibility of Hotpoint.
