hoover fridge freezer,3yrs old,freezer ok,fridge not cold enough?

I recently had the same problem with my 10 year old Candy Fridge freezer - food eg milk etc was going off quickly - An engineer came round and told me the compressor was faulty - (When I searched the net after this was backed up elsewhere from the symptoms ) - he said a new one would have been about £130(!) so i have decided to get a new Fridge Freezer.
I don't think it's a DIY repair unfortunately - another possibly but less likely is the thermostat control.
