"Hi there,

1-You can fill in your kettle to the maximum line with equal parts water and white vinegar.
2-Boil the kettle and leave the mixture to soak for an hour.
3-Pour out the mixture and rinse the inside of the kettle with clean water.
4-If the limescale remains, repeat the process.

Hope it helps,"

"Equal parts of white vinegar and water. Leave in kettle for a few hours. Then boil the kettle.

If it doesn’t clear it. Leave the mix overnight and repeat"
