Best price for heating oil?

sjallen_2

Was looking at bolierjuice and they were quoting ~41.5p/l (excl VAT) for 2000+ litres. rang around several local suppliers and got 38.5(Incl VAT) with no problem.
This has happenned on the last two occassions we've bought oil.
I would recommend that you always ring around local suppliers and not just believe the spin on the Boilerjuice web site.

Boilerjuice quoting 41.44, and best price locally (so far) 40.74. Not a lot, but a difference.

I have found that 5-10 minutes spent calling round half a dozen suppliers locally (North Dorset in my case) has always got me a better price than BoilerJuice. BJ may be able to obtain a further discount through grouping, but it's not guaranteed and they cannot give any indication of what the discount might be (if any), so I prefer to go with the price I obtain for myself.

I have just ordered 1000 litres throught Boiler Juice price quoted for Lincolnshire is 35.45 ex vat. Not too bad me thinks!

Final price after grouping 34.89 p/l ex vat - even better!

Well, me and my mouth. For the first time in over three years, BJ came up with the cheapest quote, even including their CC surcharge (none of our local suppliers apply a surcharge when I order direct, so why does BJ?). At least the surcharge can be avoided by using a Debit Card.

heatingoil.co.uk don't 'do' North Dorset yet, and wellieboot.co.uk don't seem to give a price quote, just take an unpriced order!

Did you know that www. heatingoil.co.uk is actually Bayford Oil, of the same address: Bowcliffe Hall, Bramham LS23 6LP? If you use heatingoil you are only dealing with one company... I wonder why they don't come clean?

Boilerjuice doesnt do what they do in my area.
Summer fill? 64p per litre. 2 days ago paid 34.3 on 1100 litres. The people I've got my DD with wanted 36.95 so thats their !!!! out the window.
