We were going to stay with our current fuel company but the woman I talked with at the Cortland office that was so helpful and offered us "new client" pricing that we decided to go with JB. They sent someone to come over the day we moved in to check the lines, etc., and gave us an overview of what to expect going forth. So far they've been great to deal with!! Beth B.

They were one of the most difficult places I've ever had to deal with. There's one lady that…read moreanswers the phone that has absolutely no clue what's actually going on or just doesn't care about her job whatsoever. When I got my propane tank dropped off the girl that has absolutely no clue what she's doing told me in 3 days someone would come and fill it up fully, it was over a week later that someone actually did show up to fill it which wasn't a big deal but I had never had a big propane tank like that so I had no clue how long the starter amount they put in there would last and it was the dead of winter so it was nerve racking. After they come and fill it fully they give you your bill which, as what the clueless lady said, should've been just about 200-220. The bill was over 100 dollars more than the price I was told it would be and when I called they were acting like I was crazy because "the price on propane fluctuates". However the only reason I gave two stars is because they did fix the bill for me and gave me the amount I was told it would've been, them fixing it however caused a whole new set of problems. Fixing the bill took them over a month and I kept calling about it and kept being told it wasn't done yet and that they'd send me the bill which I never ended up getting. The only reason I knew it was finally fixed is when they finally called me OVER a month later and asked me when I was planning to pay the new balance like I was the one who was taking forever. Keep in mind I never got anything in the mail about and I called many times to check up on when I would get the new bill and was told that they were working on it and to wait until I received the bill in the mail. The only semi decent thing about that was they let me pay over the phone which they wouldn't let me do the entire time they were "working on it" I'm sorry but I refuse to believe it took them an entire month to fix my bill. And lastly I called them at maybe the second week of April and asked them to come pick my propane tank, I asked when it would be picked up and was basically told " that's not how it works they get to it when they are in the area". I'm 20 minutes from Cortland and pass where they reside nearly daily and I'm in a campground full of people who specifically get propane tanks through JB Smith but okay fine I can understand not making a special trip. I asked for an estimated time they'd be in the area because I wanted to be here when they picked it up and she looked it up and said they'll be there and should be able to pick it up in a week. Over a week passes and I haven't been called or notified in any way why no one has shown up so I call and I get the same damn girl who could care less and she tells me that almost ALL of their trucks broke down and they're having this huge problem and I'm like okay that's fine when will they be coming now. she tells me some specific day within the week that I can't remember now and guess what no one come yet again. From the very first time I called it's been around 2 and 1/2- 3 weeks and I'm about to be moving so I called today and got someone who actually knows what they're doing and I explain how long it's been and that I'm leaving and you know what she says , we can have someone over there this afternoon. THIS AFTERNOON. Like seriously has it been that easy from that start. An hour after that phone call someone is here picking up my propane tank. Except now, I don't know if they have a policy where they don't hook back up your own propane tanks but, I'm now left with figuring out how to put it back together and make sure it's not leaking alone. They are the sole reason I will not be winter camping again. The only time I enjoyed anything about JB Smith is after I finally got them paid and I wasn't having to call them or deal with them at all and I had a propane tank I didn't need to fill for 3 months and could use without worry. Worst experience ever.

But Tuesday we ran out of oil @ 8:00 AM. So we swore a little and paid an extra $199 to have a "special delivery" After a full day of freezing, Blue Ox drove 1 mile down East River Road from Weavers Farm Market, where they regularly deliver oil every Tuesday. It was 6:00 PM. The "special delivery" was a 1 mile detour of their route at the end of the day. I feel Blue Ox took advantage of us - I feel that the Blue Ox schedulers don't give a f*ck about customers (Weaver's is 1 mile away and gets oil every Tuesday - how much effort to add our address to the delivery) Blue Ox didn't do anything "special". And that said -- $199 for delivery at 10:00 AM would have been acceptable. Paying $199 for 10 hours of misery is not acceptable. When complaining -- Blue Ox said "All we guarantee is same day delivery." -- I would like to SWEAR at them mightily -- but I need their oil to get through these horrible winters/
