Nest heat link failure outrageous

RoryConlon

Like so many of you I have tried to get a simple nest heatlink replacement over the last year

I followed the suggestions but it’s simple there is no power in the heat link. I’m happy to return it but to where?  I am a qualified engineer and can confirm the unit is faulty. There ease t even a load on the relays as we use the heatlink to simply trigger a bigger relay that takes all the power. 

Google know this unit has a tendency to fail, you can’t buy it as a separate unit and I had to replace it with a new unit( I only had to replace the heat link unit, once I did the new one worked immediately, but I had  to buy the full kit

I’m sure under EU law we are entitled to have the unit replaced. Come on google do the right thing

Hi Alex
I still have no resolution to this issue
There is no power in the unit
the reason you haven't heard from me is I couldn't reply as the option to reply was greyed out.
Also email failed to Mailer@us.khoros

Thanks for letting us know all, 

Could you tell me please when did the situation start occurring first and when was the thermostat installed?

Also, please answer to the following questions:

Are there any lights on the Heat Link? Does the boiler activate when calling for heat by pressing the Heat Link's button to activate Manual Mode?
Are you seeing any wiring report or error on the thermostat and/or the app?
Have you had any recent power cuts in your area? If yes, has the power been restored?
Have you recently had service or maintenance on your electrical, plumbing, or heating system?
If yes, how long was the power off for? (Be specific.)
Could you tell us please if you've checked on the breaker switch and fuse box?
Any blown fuse in there? Have you tried to turn the breaker switch off and on again? Any difference?
