LPG Price Rises

in LPG, heating oil, solid & other fuels
Has anybody noticed huge rises in LPG for heating use in last month. I had a contract with Shell at 32.5p, it went up 3p to 35.5 three weeks ago and now they want to lift it by 7p. This has breeched their agreement with me but after checking with Calor they want 43p a litre. If mains gas went up by nearly a third there would be articles in the papers but I guess us lpg users are a small country minority!
Also be careful about installing underground tanks, as Calor stated that they would not sign up users from Shell underground tanks as they did not install a requisite safety valve.

    Dont know where you live but think yourself lucky getting LPG at that price.
    I live in rural Scotland and was paying 58p per litre a few months ago. We have just changed our system to Oil as at least we can shop around for a better deal - with BP we had to take the gas from them.
