Oil
« on: 01 Oct, 2023, 11:13:46 am »
Has anyone bought their oil for winter yet?  I have half a tank left and cannot decide if I should get it now or wait until later, so maybe cost will come into the decision.

I've just had oil delivered.  It was 1.22 litre.  I was told the price will not be going down anytime soon.  I'd thoughtit would at least fill tank to  3/4 full but it isn't.  I'll need to get more before the end of winter

 Yes, it was a bit of a shock.  I only ordered 500 ltrs as I had almost half a tank, so maybe that's why.  Is it cheaper the more you buy?

Just cancelled my order from Tarraga y Palmis as they still haven't delivered my order and won't respond to messages. we have been waiting for a week.  Contacted BP and their minimum delivery is 400l and 2 cents cheaper.

Wow, that makes a difference when buying in bulk.  I haven't had any problems with delivery, possibly due to the fact they are based in Macael...I might see what BP are chanrging when I need a top up next year -

Who is that with Lmj19?  It might be worth me ordering from them now.. I am unable to access Facebook, hence my question...

Wolfie do you have contact details for Gonzalez Canabate as we usually use T&P but their service has gone down hill and would like to find someone else for next time, thanks

Sorry for the delay but I had to pick up the family from the airport and didn't get around to going on the forum.

Phone number: 679015268
Email: contacto@gonzalezcanabate.com
I sent my location via WhatsApp

The driver was a nice chap, very helpful indeed, spoke just a little English but we got by...!

Sadly I was too late to order from Wolfie's suggestion.  My oil was delivered on Boxing day and was €1.05 ltr  How much was yours, Wolfie?
