Customer Reviews
Be sure to check around for better pricing. I feel like I’ve been taken advantage of for the last couple years with the amount I’m being charged. My most recent delivery compared to my sister-in-law using a different company is a 66% increase. I plan on filing a complaint with the Attorney General‘s office and maybe nothing will come of it, but I would definitely encourage customers to shop around and not be a victim of price gouging.
Reading the negative reviews, you can really see the difference between people who actually had a bad experience and those who cannot accept responsibility/don't understand how things work. My account was put on hold because I missed a payment. That's my fault! I paid it and called, and they were originally going to deliver in a week. When I explained my oil was out and I had no heat/hot water they scheduled an emergency delivery for me to receive partial in 24 hours to hold me over until they could make a full delivery. Petro's website leaves a little to be desired, but when I call, the customer service is friendly and helpful, and they make sure my family doesn't freeze! I've been a customer since moving to New England last year abd don't forsee leaving them until I move again.
Just before a major snow storm, they refused to bring me oil unless I paid them $200. It's freezing tonight and I have to wait till between 10:00 and 1:00 later today to feel heat again. My account balance is below $200. I'm so disgusted. I turned the oven to 400° and left the door open. Update: a man was here this morning to start my furnace with a little bit of oil. I was up all night so I fell asleep when he left. I woke up to 57° and the furnace is not running. Did it run out of oil already? Update: The call center people should be paid more than a man who knows how to operate a hose. The boy they sent told me there was no electricity to the furnace. My electrician came over and said, yes there is electricity to the furnace. Four days later, furnace is fixed. Problem: thermostat wasn'
Been customers for 2 weeks. Had our appointments rescheduled or no-show four times. Nearly impossible to get in touch with someone on the phone. Had to cancel service, would not recommend!
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! ZERO STARS! I had a new furnace installed by Petro last December but, as they were aware, used a different company for heating supply. I was told that the furnace had a one year warranty. 13 and 1/2 months later, I woke up freezing and found that the furnace wasn’t working. I called Petro with the understanding that I knew the warranty had just expired, but regardless, needed someone to come out to repair it at any cost. I was told that because I wasn’t a “current customer” they actually refused to service the furnace that they installed! I have since told all of my family and friends to stay far away from this company, and urged them to pass my story along to everyone they know. I plan on contacting the BBB, etc., regarding this company’s unethical, despicable a
