      I called ************ to repair my propane furnace on 6/06/2024. Two men came and said that it was just a minor adjustment. We had no hot water the entire weekend. We called them back on Monday and said that we still did not have hot water. They sent another guy to look at the furnace and said that we needed a new rod. He said it would have to be ordered. He adjusted the one that was in there as much as possible so that we could have hot water until the part came in. We went another weekend without hot water. A couple of days later, they sent him back with a part that did not fit. Again, he said when the part came in, he would be back to replace it. Today is 6/17/2024. A fourth man came to replace the rod. Rod still doesnt fit. This is terrible service. Work not done and yet, sent us a bill. They said on the day I called they will bill when work is completed. Terrible service. Did not pay yet. Repair not done. This is a terrible way to run a business.

      *** lived in ****** for the past 7 years and out of those years, I was a customer of ******************** for 5 years. I recently purchased a home under the impression there was a preexisting 100 gallons in the oil tank. We moved in roughly 12 days ago with an 8 month old. This morning we awoke to the home at 54 degrees and lowering. I contacted Fieldings to confirm that I was a preexisting customer for 5 years and needed an emergency delivery at our new address because it was unsafe for my son. I was met with terminology that I wasnt an existing customer due to buying a home, regardless if they had delivery information in their system for multiple years. I requested to speak to a supervisor because the terminology they use leads to their existing customers being bamboozled in situations like this. The supervisor chose to point out that I hadnt had a delivery since February of 2022 and with that being said, they chose to view me as a non-customer stating that if you dont have oil delivered over a 12 month period. I asked her where that information was provided and the supervisor herself (***) said she did not know where it was listed to confirm.Even though the responsibility of oil in the household was transferred to my significant other whom uses a different company, the account is thus viewed as a non-customer. Nothing in regard to myself cancelling or closing the account and disqualifying me from getting an emergency fill for the safety of my child. I was then told by a woman named *** that my problem(s) are the same as 10% of the country and that if I was nice, I wouldve got farther with the process.At no point in time was I disrespectful, rude or insulting. I asked if they filed under the BBB and if the line was recorded. Both in which *** confirmed. Im awaiting a delivery from Fieldings today with no confirmation time in a house that has an 8 month old and a decreasing temperature but I will not be utilizing this company moving forward.
