Domestic Heating Oil: Price Comparison by Region

[Snoodle]

I apologise to them (I should have checked with them myself!) - more power to their elbow. I'll try to get my supplier to stop lying and start working with them!

Just moved into a new home to find it has this heating oil system! I have never come across it before now, so I set about finding quotes for 1000 Litres.

 

The cheapest supplier so far in the Lincolnshire area is Chandlers at £325.50: Chandlers Oil & Gas: heating Homes and fuelling Businesses

 

If anyone can beat that, I would like to hear it!!!

Oil prices have dipped very low at the moment. I guess it depends where in Lincolnshire but I have found 1000 litres in Grantham through www.boilerjuice.com for £310.49. But the forecasters are warning that prices are going to rise so if you have room in your tank order now.

Me and my wife live in wrexham, we have always kept an eye on prices in the past, although there are some good ones, we found the cheapest prices we could find were at www.heatingoil.co.uk, and we found that we were paying even less when we ordered with our neighbours.

www.cheapestoil.co.uk gives price comparisons from UK oil suppliers twice a day I have found this site invaluable!! I always use it before I get my quotes now. £176 for 500 litres!! Edited August 25, 2009 by Pert

For Inverness area, Highland are usually cheaper but be careful about them. I've been checking prices for a couple of days with Highland and CPL (would have checked Gleaner but they have yet to answer the phone!).

On Friday:

Highland and CPL both 51p

On Monday, after a snowy weekend:

CPL - 52p

Highland - 58p

 

Despite their previous good record, Highland seem to be taking advantage of the cold snap to push up prices, and I will be checking them very carefully in future. If I'd gone with them I'd have paid an extra 50 quid for nothing. Please always phone around before buying oil.
