He did not think there was enough room for him to install in the same location. Due to height restrictions and duct work etc." Instead he suggested a far more expensive option.

I had this company's "service" in two separate homes. The first was a rental, so no choice, but…read morepeople told me he had the lowest prices, and it was years later, so I went with him again in spite of my having experienced him as being rude in the first home. He is not only rude, he is less than honest in his dealing with people. He moved the tank to in front of the gate to my backyard, so I couldn't even use it, and when I told him not to put gas in it because I wanted it moved, he took the tank away. He gave me a snotty little face and wave as he left. Then his wife called me and told me I had $900 on account with them. I told her he took the tank, but he brought it back and put it in the same place, so I told him to move it or not put gas in it. I never got my $900 worth of gas. At first when I called about it, they said, "No, it was only $300 (something)." But that changed to nothing by the next time I called. He is rude and dishonest.

For a convenience store, this place has quite a lot going for it. For one, the people there are…read morefriendly and have personality. Convenience is definitely present, as they are open early and late (till midnight). The coffee is usually very fresh, and is surprisingly good. The regular coffee in the Bunn pot is the only one I have tried, as I do not care for flavored coffees. The beans are good, the roast is good, and I have made it almost a daily ritual to get it. Emergency provisions such as eggs, bacon, gallons of milk, chocolate chips, flour, sugar, butter, etc. are available. Cat and Dog food, Motor oil of course, a wide assortment of chips, candy, some hot food, sandwiches and pastries are available. The local papers are almost always well stocked. What makes an enjoyable experience here is the fact that the people working there are just really nice people. Some different employees come and go, but they never hire nasty or surly folks. So the vetting process for being hired must be pretty good. Kudos to the management (and the staff!)

I spoke to…read morethe customer service nice lady & explained how I am limited to my social security monthly check & that I would pay off the entire bill in three monthly payments, which I did. She agreed which is documented. After sending the last payment I received a $25 late fee bill. When I called, she blamed it on a computer glitch . I received another late fee from Scott for the $25, after trying to explain to him via a number of emails he refused to accept my explanations, all documented. Now First Fuel agrees to forego the $25 finance charge, but will demand that future delivers will be COD. I find your bill policies especially towards senior citizens to be vert predatory. I have never receive a delivery without my account being paid up to date. Winter is coming on & senior citizens get cold too. *

These folks advertise that they treat you like family. Believe me they don't. They say all the…read moreright things on the phone but as soon as you sign a contract they turn on you. They came and estimated putting in gas lines and tanks and gave me a price. Then the bill came and it was way over the price they gave me. The excuse was that the person who gave me the price was no longer working for them. I don't care about that. They gave me a price and they should honor it. That wasn't the end of their dirty little deeds. They told me that my 1st fill up was at 1.39 a gallon and that from then on it was 2.59. So I get my bill and its 2.79. They said that I was not on a fixed price and that I was on a 3 year contract and subject to market prices. In effect telling me tough. Well the market price in my area today is 2.55. That's 24 cents over market price. Would you do that to family? I think not. So now I have to contact my lawyer and assess my options. Don't let them trick you into a shady deal. Go elsewhere. Everyone is cheaper for oil or propane.
