I was a customer of McGoldrick Fuel for many years without incident. They always came to fill up our tank when it got to half full. However, due to the timing of a long trip, I wanted to ensure that I would have the freedom to "shop around" for oil prices when I returned. This necessitated making sure that my current contract, which expires on July 31st, would not be automatically renewed. I wrote a letter stating that I would not be renewing the contract when it expired and asked that all necessary steps be taken to stop my automatic deliveries and payments. I delivered the letter to the McGoldrick office and asked the secretary who was present to sign the bottom of my copy as proof that I had delivered the letter one month in advance of the end of the contract. I left another copy of the letter with my signature. Three days later (a Saturday), I receive the copy of the letter back with a note stating that the letter was void because it was "not signed by an officer of the company". I read my contract and it only stated that they needed a written notice of any cancellation or nonrenewal. I returned to the office two days latter and asked that the original copy of the letter be signed by an "officer" of the company. I was told that it was the owner. I heard someone in a back office and told the secretary that I wanted something in writing stating that I was not going to renew the contract and therefore, no advance purchase of oil should be made on my behalf (along with a $900 fee if I cancelled before the end of that new contract). I heard the owner tell her that he had "pulled my ticket" and that no further deliveries would be made. I then asked again to have that in writing to protect myself from a penalty fee at a later date. The owner then came out of the office and told me that I had his word and I responded that that was fine but I needed something in writing. He then threatened to call the police if I did not leave the office and told me that he was not going to sign anything. When I again asked for him to at least sign my copy of the letter he told me to get the F--- out of the office. I was a customer of theirs for almost 20 years. Why was I not given a written confirmation that my account would be closed when the contract expired??
Description of Work: I needed to inform the company that I would not be renewing my automatic oil delivery contract for next year. I also wanted written confirmation of the receipt of the letter that I wrote to prevent an automatic renewal of the contract. I did everything in person and was treated with extreme disrespect!

I was very pleased with the service. The people who came in were very professional, on time, efficient, and they cleaned up after themselves.
Description of Work: They cleaned my furnace and tuned it up.
