Called last week (2/11) request refill of tank because it was getting low. Told it would occur this week. By Thursday (2/18) nothing. Call again and told it was scheduled for Friday (2/19). By 3:45 still no delivery, so call again. Now told they have a truck broke down, and will send someone out Saturday to fill the tank. Hey guess what Peggy, last night we had a six-hour power outage and once again had to rely on the fireplace for heat. It is obvious that AmeriGas is unreliable for delivery. The simple aspect of a phone call (professional courtesy) might very well have prevented any misunderstandings. You may find that an unreasonable request, but the 25 customers that did not receive service may not. Hopefully I can reach many of them and help influence them to take my same course of action away from AmeriGas' unprofessional service policies.

 Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:  1) I NEVER refused AmeriGas to remove the tank.  Their employee came to retrieve the tank, and he decided it was too wet.  2) I was not presented with a "disclaimer", I was asked to sign a RELEASE, which would release AmeriGas from ALL damages to my property or to their equipment/property.  I did not have to sign such RELEASE when they placed the tank. That is why AmeriGas is required to carry liability insurance on their equipment. I will not sign a RELEASE that will release AmeriGas from damaging the current providers property. I offered to "red-line" the release to only release them from damage to my yard and I was told that was "Unacceptable".  3) If they had retrieved the tank when the service was cancelled in August, there would not have been any issues or risks to AmeriGas or me and my property. 4) They have NOW sent me another tank rental invoice of $54.06. They OWE me for a prorated portion since I cancelled before the renewal.  I am not using their tank, therefore, I will not pay for rental. 5) They have failed to provide documentation that the collection agency has been notified that WE DO NOT OWE AmeriGas any money.  6) They completely lie. 7) They still owe me for 8% of the tank. (Prior to their UNAUTHORIZED refill.

Dear **. [redacted]:Thank you for giving AmeriGas Propane, L.P. (“AmeriGas”) an opportunity to respond to **. [redacted]’s...

complaint regarding a delivery we made that he did not order. AmeriGas takes any complaint by its customers seriously. Therefore, upon receipt of **. [redacted]’s complaint, we investigated the allegations contained therein and provide the following response based on our findings.**. [redacted] is correct we did make a delivery to him that he did not authorize. **. [redacted] had requested his account be changed to a will call account. Will Call customers are set up so they only receive deliveries if they call us to place an order. Unfortunately, when he made this request we failed to indicate the change on his account and we made another automatic delivery to his residence. Upon receiving this letter we contacted **. [redacted] directly to address his concerns. **. [redacted] said he would agree to keep the delivery if we matched the price he had received from one of our competitors. We agreed to his request and **. [redacted] has since paid for the delivery.We value all of our customers and are happy we were able to keep **. [redacted]’s business. In light of the foregoing, AmeriGas reasonably believes that this matter has been resolved. If you have any questions or require further information, please feel free to contact me.Sincerely,

First off I called AmeriGas not my wife. They can't even get those facts straight. 
There was no propane in the tanks because the stove stopped working. Once the new propane company came here and removed the propane tanks belonging to AmeriGas, and hooked up their new full tanks, the stove fired right up. Even the technicians from the new propane company confirmed those two tanks were empty. Also there was no delivery slip at my house from AmeriGas acknowledging a delivery from Amerigas. AmeriGas did not deliver any propane to my house or they would have found two empty tanks. They want me to believe that I went a whole year and used only 17 gallons of propane than cleaned out two + 25 gallon tanks in 18 days. Really.
 I was also never told and certainly not  informed in writing of a company policy when we signed up, that if you use propane just for cooking you will get neglected service in the winter time in favor of those customers who use propane for heating. I would not have chose AmeriGas if I knew that. That is why it took three weeks to get a delivery.This account is an automatic refill which is suppose to make sure I don't run out of propane. I  especially called in early February  because  we ran out of propane last year on the weekend and I did not want to run out again a second year in a row. Guess what. I ran out of propane on the weekend a second year in a row. Keep in mind this account is on automatic refill so it never suppose to run out of propane. That is one of their selling points.
 AmeriGas is a real class act.  I am certainly not paying anything  for the especially poor service I got from AmeriGas not to mention for propane I  did not receive.

 Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because, while the tank has finally been removed, the business response did not address the storage fees and aggravation and stress I've had to endure over the last 3 plus years. This is the second complaint I've had to file with the Revdex.com over this issues(Complaint # [redacted] on 02/09/13) to finally get some results from Amerigas. Additionally, I don't feel the company has dealt fairly with me when verbally discussing this with their customer service department or with their responses to the Revdex.com. On Friday 12/05/14, when I received another invoice this year I spoke with Lillian from customer service at 7:46 PM. She stated the District Manager for the Stroudsburg office would be contacting me within 1 to 3 business days. At the end of the 3rd business day I filed the Revdex.com complaint we are addressing now. On 12/12/14 @ 4:15 PM I again called the customer service department since I still was not contacted by the District Manager and I spoke with Patty. She said she would contact me with the Stroudsburg office and I told her I only wanted to speak to the District Manager and no one else. When she returned she stated Candi was the District Manager and she would take my call. I expressed my frustration to Candi and she apologized stating my information had come from a closed office and it had been missed. I told her I don't know how it could have been lost as we go through this every year and I still have the voice message saved on my answering machine from last year stating they were going to be picking up the tank that week. I asked her why I was told the District Manger would be calling me in 1 to 3 business days and she had not contacted me. At that point she stated she was not the District Manager but the manager at Stroudsburg. I asked her why I was told by Patty she was the District Manager and Candi stated "she was lead to believe I was the District Manger". I told her I didn't want to speak to her but the District Manager and she said she would have him call me Monday. On Tuesday 12/16/14 I received a voice mail from "Bob", at Amerigas, in Stroudsburg. I returned his call and left a message. Bob had not returned my call by Friday so I called again and spoke with him. He stated my complaint was elevated to the "Corporate Level" and I would be contacted by someone from corporate to discuss the issue. No-one has contacted me to date from their corporate office but the response replied to the Revdex.com is they consider the issue resolved. I feel the above show the company is not dealing honestly with me or their responses to the Revdex.com and  I think they need to address the storage fees I would like to be compensated for the tank being stored on my property for the last 3 plus years, and the aggravation and stress I have had to endure over this issue.

 Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because: The 'Insurance Company" already called me when I
submitted the initial complaint and denied my complaint with absolutely NO investigation
whatsoever. I would like an unbiased investigation of my complaint with me
being present on my property. I do not authorize Amerigas or their
"Insurance Company," on my property without me being present. I have
read Amerigas's agreement for providing service to my residence and understand
they have the abilities to come on to my property to provide a service to my
propane needs. However, this is a complaint, not a service, so the agreement
does not give them the right to come on my property without me being present. I
again, ask for a unbiased investigation with me present.

In December of 2016 I received a delivery of propane gas. After being stunned at looking at the amount they were charging per gallon I called around to get local prices. By doing so I found that I was charged more then double the price other gas companies would have charged me. So I then called the Paradee Gas Company and spoke to Charlotte and she told my she could change my price per gallon which was comparable to local companies. She told me that she would lock in that price till May 2017. I agreed and asked her to send me some paper work so I would have proof of the price change. She agreed and that it would be mailed out. I waited till January 2017 and still hadn't received any information about my new price per gallon. I did receive a bill stating the original price per gallon which surprised me since my conversation with Charlotte that I would receive a new rate. So I called her which is another chore just getting through on the phone to them. They make it very hard to get through just to speak to someone. After getting ahold of Charlotte she said my paperwork must have gotten lost in the mail and she would resend it. Then they delivered propane again and I was charged that inflated rate. I'm on the monthly budget and can't understand why they can't get the information about the rate they have promised me. I feel that I'm being cheated since I have a hefty balance in my account. I would like to know when they are going to get my bills correct with the new rate and send me my paperwork. No on should have to go through what I have just to get answers. Plus this is price gauging. This has gone on long enough. I have never received any paperwork from Paradee only my bill!!

Dear [redacted]:Thank you for giving AmeriGas Propane, L.P (“AmeriGas”) an opportunity to...

respond to [redacted]’s complaint regarding billing to her account. AmeriGas takes any complaint by its customers seriously. Therefore, upon receipt of [redacted]’s complaint, we investigated the allegations contained therein and provide the following response based on our findings.Upon receiving this letter AmeriGas District Manager Lisa F[redacted] did a thorough investigation into [redacted]’s account and discovered everything was correctly billed. The apartment complex where [redacted] resides, Village of [redacted], refused to repair the broken meters. A list of over fifty (50) plus broken meters were presented to them during a meeting with Area Director, [redacted] & Former Operations Vice President, [redacted]. Village of [redacted] agreed those meters should be billed as estimated until repaired or replaced.[redacted] did not pay her December 2013 invoice of $84.97 until February 14, 2014. During this time, her January 31, 2014 invoice for $172.49 and her invoice from February 7, 2014 for $152.7 billed out. The tenants of the complex were sent an apology letter for the close billing of the January and February invoice and issued a credit of $70.00.The Village of [redacted] was on a floating community price and cost per unit, so [redacted]’s account was priced accordingly. If [redacted] is willing to pay her balance in full, Ms. F[redacted] will remove the three (3) late fees ($36.00 each) and close the account. Currently, [redacted]’s account balance is $632.19.We value all of our customers both past and present and trust this response addresses [redacted]’s concerns. In light of the foregoing, AmeriGas reasonably considers this matter resolved. If you have any questions or require further information, please feel free to contact me.
