Yes had a powercut a month ago that lasted a week.
We blow up the sub station. EDF Energy bought a generator that was not big enough to power the whole street. They turned on between 6-10pm and 7-9am when we went to claim comp because all the frezzer food de frosted
They kindly told us as they managed to restore the supply every twelve hours and we where not off for more than 24 hours in succession.
Therfore we where entitled to £0 had to claim of home insurance
Now have claim on file policy goes up next year.
I have a chinese waterdragon that needs to be kept at temps above 75F all day had to buy a small genni myself to get through the cost as expected they would not refund either
