    £167 today for 500l at Craigs Fuels BT47, cheapest in a long while for me:T :T :T

    Didn't have enough room in my tank for 900l's it only a wee one;)
    I am trying, honest;) very trying according to my dear OH:rotfl:
  • Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me with this. My heating didn't come on this morning and it looked (in the dark) as if the tank was empty. I only bought 900L of oil on 22nd December. We were away for a full week in January and I normally get 10 - 12 weeks from 500L. It just isn't possible that we used that amount of oil. I'll have to hope there's still some daylight when I get home from work and can dp the tank but is there any way of knowing whether the tank has been interfered with? I don't have a lock. If I can show that the level of oil was way beyond what we would have used do you think I'll be able to claim from insurance? :confused:

    no you wont be able to claim from insurance. - i dont believe home insurance policyies cover oil in your tank - they cover oil spillage or leaks but not the oil being stolen.

    i think mostly when oil is taken they just drill a hole near the bottom of the tank and drain it that way, however if you were away then I guess its possible someone did come in and siphon it out.

    i hope it hasnt been stolen, but if it has report it to the police so at least its noted (not that they'll do anything). You can also get a padlock for the future but as I've said anyone who is out to get oil will most likely just drill a hole so theres not much you can do to stop that.
    DON'T WORRY BE HAPPY ;)

  • Thanks nadnad. It turned out to be a boiler problem, not the oil.
  • I too find Boilerjuice is rarely the cheapest these days. Instead I use www.cheapestoil.co.uk and have beaten Boilerjuice's price in 4 out of my last 5 orders.
