I had this company's "service" in two separate homes. The first was a rental, so no choice, but…read morepeople told me he had the lowest prices, and it was years later, so I went with him again in spite of my having experienced him as being rude in the first home. He is not only rude, he is less than honest in his dealing with people. He moved the tank to in front of the gate to my backyard, so I couldn't even use it, and when I told him not to put gas in it because I wanted it moved, he took the tank away. He gave me a snotty little face and wave as he left. Then his wife called me and told me I had $900 on account with them. I told her he took the tank, but he brought it back and put it in the same place, so I told him to move it or not put gas in it. I never got my $900 worth of gas. At first when I called about it, they said, "No, it was only $300 (something)." But that changed to nothing by the next time I called. He is rude and dishonest.

This past spring my husband and I opened our summer cottage and to our dismay we had no gas. Upon…read morecalling Columbia Gas we were greeted in a friendly and concerned manner. The receptionist took our information and within minutes returned our call stating that a delivery truck was heading our way. Just luck that a truck was in our vicinity, or good customer service? It's nice to know that unscheduled emergencies can be handled courteously and expeditiously. Oh, and the price, we found out later was competitive! Thanks, Columbia Gas!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! just purchased a home in saugerties which…read moreis fueled by propane. somehow they have a tracker on their tanks which alerts them for when we need a refill. they automagically come, no hassle no scheduling, refill, and then send a bill. joyelle is a JOY to work with and set up new accounts with. i'd actually like to work for them considering they have five beautiful puppies in their office. ideal work environment, speaks highly of the company these guys are awesome!

Jason from Main Care Energy had the nerve (or was dumb enough) to send me this message: "After…read moreshowing the photos regarding your storage tanks to my brother (he does the installations), he had a suggestion. He did not think there was enough room for him to install in the same location. Due to height restrictions and duct work etc." Instead he suggested a far more expensive option. I had the exact specs of our space; also specs from both the manufacturer of the tanks we wanted and from a few other installers that we called for bids. So I knew he was lying.

I don't give a shit what is okay or not okay w my tank, but to deny me oil delivery because I negate your bullshit is bullshit. I just wanted your oil, not your asshole opinion on what I may need.

Long Energy came with the house when I moved to the VOK. Generally happy with service, but…read moreyesterday I woke to no heat, no hot water, no display in the on demand propane fueled hot water heater and it needed parts. Part came in from the manufacturers this afternoon and at 7:20pm I have heat and hot water before the temperature plummets again.

These folks advertise that they treat you like family. Believe me they don't. They say all the…read moreright things on the phone but as soon as you sign a contract they turn on you. They came and estimated putting in gas lines and tanks and gave me a price. Then the bill came and it was way over the price they gave me. The excuse was that the person who gave me the price was no longer working for them. I don't care about that. They gave me a price and they should honor it. That wasn't the end of their dirty little deeds. They told me that my 1st fill up was at 1.39 a gallon and that from then on it was 2.59. So I get my bill and its 2.79. They said that I was not on a fixed price and that I was on a 3 year contract and subject to market prices. In effect telling me tough. Well the market price in my area today is 2.55. That's 24 cents over market price. Would you do that to family? I think not. So now I have to contact my lawyer and assess my options. Don't let them trick you into a shady deal. Go elsewhere. Everyone is cheaper for oil or propane.

My time does not matter since time is not valuable and waiting for an appointment seems to be the model that lazy companies use to avoiding good customer service. I got up early and prepared for the estimate. 11:30 am rolled around and no one came so I called the company. It was a cluster. So, I cancelled the current appoint and the next appointment the following day. Wow! can you imagine needing gas in the heart of winter and freezing to death while waiting for the truck to come? The only thing you could do to survive is start burning the furniture, hook up the barbeque pit or not use Long Energy in the first place. I will go with the last option. It is a long shot, but I think I am right.

Do not use Long energy for fuel purchase or furnace service. we have used this company for our…read morefurnace maintenance and propane supply, but recently purchased our propane from another vendor. Tonight our furnace stopped working and we called Long Energy for emergency service, after looking up our address the extremely rude woman handling our service call stated that since we purchased fuel with another company they "wouldn't touch our furnace for any reason", leaving us in the cold and searching for another service. After serving 22 years in the Marines, I would say that I am disgusted by this company and their lack of ethics and pride in serving their community. If they were to go out of business tomorrow it wouldn't be soon enough.
