Low priced fuel sounds good… until it’s not. Every time temperatures plummet, our office is flooded with calls from homeowners and renters who thought they could have it both ways: saving money without putting their comfort at risk. Then they find their discount company isn’t even answering the phone, can’t make a delivery for a week or can’t get them a plumber to do a repair. Can’t, Can’t, Can’t.
During those times, you are out of luck. Because when the going gets rough, most fuel companies will only prioritize their existing customers. So please think hard whether saving 10 or 20 cents a gallon is really worth all you give up by not having a company you can feel completely confident about.
