bad experinece with Electro Depot
I have bought many products of the Valberg brand at Electro Depot in Ostend. One of these is the Groot vitrokeramisch fornuis VALBERG VAL CV 90 5MFC NVT, costing 549.95 euro and comes with standard 2 year warranty. 1 Day we were baking meat in the oven, and all of sudden we see a crack coming in the glass-cover of the vitrokeramic plates. We contact the shop about this issue, the first employee said we had to contact vt service -as this is the repairshop voor Electro Depot. This sevice points back to Electro Depot -ping/pong game. Electro Depot recommends us to get things fixed for an amout 395.67 euro -for that price I almost buy a new one. We only used it for 5 months. In the end, no one wants to take responsibility from the side of Electro Depot or VT Service. According to there own exception list of non-valid-warranty rules, our issue does not belong to that list. However, Electro Depot still denies us a free repair of glass-cover. Until now we still work on it, to resolve the problem. This is my first experience with Electro Depot.

your answer here on TrustPilot:
Dear,
The inspection and diagnosis of a defect will be carried out by VTService,
who will judge, according to their knowledge and experience,
whether the detected defect complies with the regulations concerning the legal guarantee.
If it is established that this is not the case and that the defect was not caused by an internal fault,
the guarantee on an appliance cannot be invoked.
In this respect, we strictly follow the legislation as laid down.

my answer:
nobody of either Electro Depot or VT Service came to my home to diagnose the defect. The so called judgment throughout knowledge and experience is purely based on pictures I sent. To get a fair and honest judgement, I would strongly suggest that an expert comes and sees
