Expensive AEG Kettle Broken after 1 y!!!

<p>Last year Feb I bought an AEG Kettle via Ebucks. Just earlier this month it stopped working.</p> <p>FNB says they are not able to assist me as its just out of the 1 year warranty.</p> <p>AEG has no repair centre other than dealers they have refred me to wanting an upfront fee for looking at the kettle and telling me that they doubt they are able to assist as the parts will need to be imported.</p> <p>SO so darn sad to have spent so much money on a kettle that is of no use where the Mellerware I had for 10 years had no issues!</p>
