As far as I know these are manually compiled by HateLPG and are neither taken from nor available from any website. I think they are only posted on this thread.0 -

Maybe this is the 'website' you require .....

That's quite correct.
The most recent chart is for December 2015 (https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/1003291); January's chart should be available soon :-)

We have just received a letter from Calor advising they will hold price at 42ppl plus daily charge of 14.58p this seems well over the top from what I'm reading, any comments. Thanks0

Welcome to the forum!
Here's the link to HateLPG's latest chart.
He/she includes the transparent prices from:
Lister's ANSI Tracker - currently 30.04
Extrafuel - currently 36.86
Cardiff Gas - currently 35.0
Carvers - currently 40.0
and Birmingham Autogas also post prices for bulk LPG - currently 32.0
[LPGas Wales Direct seems to have stopped posting prices].
So these prices put Calor's kind offer into context, as you suggest. Of course you need to do the calculations including the different tank rental prices. And it's always worth contacting each company - suddenly Calor will find it can be even kinder aka 'competitive', and others may give you an introductory offer.
Please post the offers you get - and the nearest town or first part of your postcode.

Your post's subject was "Help - Metered Estate LPG" so here are some links to posts about METERED ESTATES. There are others - and there may be more recent ones too. 'Search this Thread' should find most of them.

Thanks LittleVermin for your time & effort really appreciated.
All other LPG experts on metered estates supplied by Calor would really appreciate market intelligence that you might have on current price per litre and daily charge, want to go into battle with Calor. We are Exeter base so any new from Devon would be even better.

Your use of the term "go into battle" demonstrates all that is wrong with this market and LPG users could use some of the effort that the CMA is putting into On-grid into the off-grid market. The last investigation helped but kept away from truly liberalising the market.
Good luck with your endevours.0
