I recently Signed a long term service contract with this company, for a 3 year contract for Propane to use as a heating fuel in my business, the contract is as written.
Customer Agrees to pay Associated's Current Market rate of ________ (writen in is 2.47Per Gallon) for Propane, All prices charged by Associated are subject to change from time to time as determined by Associated. Associated Agrees to notify Customer as Soon as practically Possible of any suck Price Change.in which such change will be Effective on the date stated in the noInvestment of Equipment at the customer Location and Customer Acknowleges the Consideration provided by Associated in providing installing and servicing such equipment.
it goes on to explain pay back terms equipment rental fees and delivery..
i have recieved 3 fills of my tank in the time since Oct 24 when the install and contract were signed.
priced at 2.67 per gallon
2.79 per gallon
and 3.10 per galon
NONE of my fills have been notified of higher prices than the signed Contract and found to be charged at a higher rate AFTER THE FACT
No attempt to correct the differences when APP has been informed of the signed contract has been made,
The Sales man is Claiming the contract reads as follows
Customer Agrees to pay Associated' Current Price of Cost Plus $1.00 over Market any given day... and the 2.47 writeen in his hand writing and signed by Frank Pupo Executive VP is invalid
IT IS NOT WRITTEN cost Plus margin over production contract, it is a fixed price contract, I have not recieved even 1 fill at the contract pricing, nor do i have the feeling i ever would,
I was Bait and Switched by APP and shall be placing my contract in the hands of a Lawyer and persuing ALL avenues necessary to recover my monies spent and the value of the contract be held at its signed price or a pay out of the value of the contract will be persued. read more
