We chose the payment plan option, which made our payments reasonable and consistent. A plus was being able to track our account with their online feature. When it came time to vacate our rental, Anchor went above and beyond to help us bring our oil tank to the appropriate level, which saved us a headache and money. We couldn't be happier with the customer service, and we'll be using Anchor for any future rentals in Newport.

I paid $60 ahead of time for a 'safety check.' I was told it would be done with the first delivery. I waited for the delivery and was told I had to be there for the safety check. the guy delivered the propane, but was then told by him that he doesn't do safety checks. called them. they said someone was supposed to call me as the delivery guys don't do safety checks. but, no one had called me. I scheduled a safety check for the following monday. I've waited all day for them to arrive. I called twice spoke with a lazy person, who kept promising me that the technician was in the area and he'd be there. in 15 minutes. in a half hour. he didn't arrive. I called and luckily spoke with the manager because they are short staffed. he actually texted the safety check guy and GUESS WHAT. safety check guy said he did the safety check in the morning and spoke with the owner. GUESS WHAT!? that guy, his name is Russ, lied. he never did any safety check at all. I was home all day. I think he came in the driveway and turned around but didn't get out of the car. he did speak briefly with my landlord, who was outside, but not me. I'm the name on the account. Russ has got to be a pathological liar. While the manager seems like a decent guy, that is not enough. I'm making a complaint to the Mass. AG.

After dropping our contract with the local "big box" heating provider that rhymes with shmeatro, I…read morestarted looking for a CoD provider, since we had just installed a new boiler that was much more efficient, and I knew our usage would drop. I called The Oil Man for a standard delivery, received the "full service" price of the big guy. If you aren't familiar, the big guy will charge you less (full service cost) if you have a service contract with them, which often doesn't make up for the difference in cost of a cod delivery (often higher without contract). They were able to deliver in two days, took a debit/credit card on the spot and were professional and courteous. If you are in the market, check them out.

It seemed that Petro's main objective was to sign customers up with an expensive contract. They also hired young people with ZERO EXPERIENCE. Sure, they were great at selling expensive contracts, but if you had a question or problem with your system, and called them, it was evident that they had no idea what they were talking about. Also, they would deliver oil without permission (which happened several times during our contract) and when called about it, they would pretend they had done it by accident. We're so grateful to have found Elite Heating and Oil, and plan to stay with them.

This was the 9th one I visited. It took us a couple seconds to figure out the entrance to the parking lot and the main entrance to the building. Since it was a Friday morning, it was almost empty and quiet. When you first walk in, the checkout counter is right in front of you and there were about two librarians who greeted us with a smile. I was gravitated towards a table on bicycling - apparently there are efforts to make at least southern RI more accessible by bike which is nice. They did have free little bike lights, so I took one. To the right of the table, the painted glass windows caught my eye. It gives a nice touch to the study tables they have there. There is a stand that has puzzles, I think to do there, but also to take home (this is perfect for people like me who like doing puzzles but don't like owning them). There is only one floor, but they have made good use of it as the material is well organized by genres and age groups. This includes movies in CD form. We did not spend too much time here but before leaving, we used the bathrooms. They are handicapped accessible, single person at a time use, and very clean.
