Wesco Oil sells heating oil, and a recent Google reviewer opens with a warning to be careful doing business with the company. That customer said they paid hundreds of dollars for a service contract, yet after the initial check of their system no one ever came to clean or check it — they got automatic deliveries, and that was all. The same customer wrote that two invoices arrived in one week with two different delivery dates and amounts, only one delivery slip matched, and instead of anyone noticing, they were called at work, emailed incessantly and threatened with collections. A 2026 Google reviewer who had been a client for almost 7 years was pleased with the service and praised the friendly staff, quick delivery and good pricing. The company's website says it has been in business 42 years, offers 24/7 emergency service, and gives customers who meet its requirements either a discount in oil or a cleaning. Its BBB page shows an A+ grade, and Google shows 4 stars from 105 ratings. In a 2025 r/RhodeIsland post, a commenter said Wesco, which had installed their system, was "absolutely useless" and was saying it could not get a tech out until maybe Monday.
“The company we’ve been working with who installed the system (Wesco) is absolutely useless - they’re saying they can’t get a tech out here until *maybe* Monday.”
Be careful doing business with this company. We paid for a service contract. After the initial check to make sure our system was in good working order and up to their standards to enter their service, we never had anyone come to clean or check the system. We got automatic deliveries, that Iwas all. Their website is very minimal. You enter your invoice # & amount you are paying that is all. There is no account info, balance etc. We received 2 invoices in the same week with 2 different delivery dates and 2 different amounts within a few days of each other. We only received 1 delivery slip in our mailbox that week that matched the first bill. There is NO way we used hundreds of gallons of oil within days. We have never used that much oil in the decade in our home nor after that. Did someone notice this inconsistency, no. Instead I was called at work, emailed incessantly and threatened with collections. I received the renewal form and threw it in the trash. We paid hundreds of dollars for a service contract but received no service.
I have been a client almost 7 years and am so pleased with the service, friendly staff, quick delivery, good pricing. I will continue to recommend your company. Thank you for making a sometimes expensive and stressful task easy for me and others in RI.
