Following a press release by the Office of Fair Trading in September

Goff always come in under boilerjuice- usually 2p.
Mt local heating oil company, SS Motors, did a lot better than BoilerJuice.
I represent a local syndicate, and last week I managed to get two companies, Goff being one, to fight it out to the end. I got a price of
54.65ppl from Goff, for a total order of approx. 35,000+ litres. Goff was clearly determined to get the order. So far, there have been a few minor hiccups, but they will be sorted. Several of the deliveries have been made, and the base price quoted yesterday was 71ppl. Join a syndicate!
Cor... that name took me back a bit
...to living on the fens at Upwell

I suppose it depends where you live, but 71ppl???? That is an extraordinary price to be paying right now.
MM
That is what I thought, especially after the deal I got last week. But that is what Goff is quoting right now, for individual orders!
I found much the same a few weeks ago.
The ownership of Boiler Juice changed not long ago. I suspect that before they were owned by an oil company their prices were more competitive.
Us too. We've stopped using Boilerjuice.
Ahhh.
OTOH, the original owner of Boilerjuice is apparently buying it back;
A few weeks ago on the radio, someone suggested waiting as prices might drop as the Libyan conflict ends.
But then I read in the press that people were not ordering oil and that prices would rise (more) as the orders starting coming in with the cold weather.
Yes, that's what we discovered. My wife spends 20 minutes on the 'phone and can beat the Boilerjuice price quite easily, even for small amounts.
IME, you should do the opposite of whatever I do. :o(
Really?
That's what the Torygraph said.
I can happily report that they still send out the same style calendar every year.
I have taken that as read for some time, huge.:-)
