Avoid Hidden Heating Oil Costs

Have you ever been lured in by a provider claiming to offer the cheapest heating oil in Wales, only to find out that the final bill was significantly more than initially quoted?

Sadly, this is becoming a much too common occurrence with online suppliers often adding extra hidden charges to the total cost of your order.

There are a few telltale signs that let you know the number quoted for your heating oil won’t reflect the final payment.

Here are 3 of the most common:

1. Under volume fines

Some providers have been known to change the cost per litre when customers estimate the amount of oil they need then don’t actually need that much. This is known as an under volume fine.

2. Service charges

Some providers add a service charge to their orders. Essentially, this is a charge for using their website and can be as high as £14.99.

3. Fines incurred due to a supposedly inaccessible tank

Some customers have also indicated that they’re being charged for deliveries not being able to access the tank. So, if your tank is hard to access, make sure you order from a supplier that doesn’t add these fees on.
