## The honest read

Dan's Oil delivers heating oil and kerosene, and a 2026 customer said Mike Jr. now runs the business after dealing with Mike Sr. before he passed away. That customer called the company very accommodating.

A 2024 customer said their gauge had broken and they ran out of kerosene; they called Dan's, and the woman they spoke with moved things around to get them a delivery. A 2022 customer wrote that friendly people deliver oil to the home, promptly and efficiently.

The phone is where things went wrong. A 2025 customer, new to the company, said a man named Mike yelled and refused to let them pay the extra amount over a $5 difference, and that the kerosene was not delivered. That customer said the delivery driver was polite and apologetic, and that Mike told them prices can change upon delivery.

A 2023 customer wrote that their grandmother, with the company since 1982, told the driver this would be her last delivery, and minutes later a woman from the office called, yelling not to expect any more deliveries. A 2022 customer said that after they questioned the price of fuel, the woman on the phone told them to find another delivery service and hung up. A 2022 customer called the delivery drivers professional and courteous but not the office staff, and called the prices the most expensive around.

**Strengths:**
- A rearranged delivery — a 2024 customer out of kerosene got a delivery
- Courteous drivers — a 2022 customer called the drivers professional and courteous

**Concerns:**
- A payment dispute — a 2025 customer said Mike yelled over a $5 difference
- An office call — a 2023 customer said the office told a grandmother no more deliveries
- A hung-up call — a 2022 customer questioned a fuel price and was hung up on
- High prices — a 2022 customer called them the most expensive around

**Where sources disagree:**
- Price views differ: a 2022 customer called the prices competitive, while a 2022 customer called them the most expensive around.
