Dear **. [redacted]:

Thank you for giving AmeriGas Propane, L.P. (“AmeriGas”) an opportunity to respond to **. [redacted]’s complaint regarding a delivery he received. AmeriGas takes every complaint by its customers seriously and upon receipt of **. [redacted]’s complaint, we investigated the allegations contained therein and provide the following response.

Our records indicate **. [redacted] is correct, he did place an order for 100 gallons and in error we delivered 439 gallons. Upon receiving this letter [redacted], AmeriGas District Manager, reached out to **. [redacted] and the two agreed upon the following resolution. The overage in question was scheduled to be removed on October 16, 2013 but unfortunately we had an equipment failure and will need to return within the next two weeks to do the pump out. **.

[redacted] was present when we made our first attempt to remove the propane and he was informed of the new schedule at this time.

We value our customers and apologize for any inconvenience we have caused to **. [redacted]. 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.

Review: I was originally a customer of Blue Flame Gas in [redacted] SC. I recently found out that Blue flame moved my account to a Blue flame in [redacted] SC. We the customers was not aware of any transfers. When I spoke to a CRR they informed me that everything have changed, delivery, pricing, ect.The CRR told me that customer gas price is different, how could this be, and how are they determining who to charge what. What is it based on, race, age, address? I think that this is a case of discrimination, and Blueflame Gas/AmeriGas should be investigated.

I would like to know why they transfer customers without notifying them, and how do they determine gas price, and is this legal?

Dear **. [redacted]:

Thank you for giving AmeriGas Propane, LP d/b/a Blue Flame Gas (“AmeriGas”) an opportunity to respond to [redacted]’s complaint regarding her account being moved from one location to another. 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 her account was transferred from our [redacted], SC office to our [redacted], SC office. Amerigas recently underwent some changes and the area in which [redacted] lives was remapped which prompted the change. These changes should have been communicated to [redacted] prior to happening but unfortunately the announcements were delayed and she did not receive them prior to the change occurring.

In regards to [redacted]’s concern about pricing, this is determined by current market price, the amount of propane that is being delivered, usage and how the account is set up.

We value our customers and have decided to credit $25 off [redacted]’s next fill for the inconvenience we have caused. In light of the foregoing, AmeriGas reasonably considers this matter resolved. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or if the customer provides additional information

Sincerely,

Review: I use propane for hot water, my stove, oven, dryer and grill. So to me this a utility and this needs to be regulated in some fashion. I ran out of gas two times in a row because Sawyer Gas forgot to check my tank. This is a big hassle because they will not fill it unless someone is home because they have to check all the pilot lights not to mention I can't cook and don't have hot water. The last time this happened I complained and they offered me an adjustment. It turns out my bill was about equal to my last complete fill up. Basically, they raised the price and gave me discount to make me happy. I am in the process of changing gas companies and they came out and did a fill after the changes process was already in and charged me $5.00 a gallon. The going rate of other companies in the area is about $3.30 a gallon based on me calling and asking a few of their competitor. Several years ago, they did the same thing to me. I noticed I was paying quite a bit for gas. I called and they said they would put me on their best rate plan. I have not been notified in any way that I am no longer on their best rate plan, but obviously I am not. I called in to complain and they said the would drop it to 3.80 a gallon, still more than comparable, but that is acceptable. However, I think they realized I am no longer going to be a customer and have not returned my call. I wanted to file a complaint because I am sure they are doing this to a lot of their customers and unless you do research, you don't realize you are getting ripped off.Desired Settlement: I just want to pay a fair price on my last bill. I also think their needs to be something in place to prevent companies like this from gouging their customers. I realize the price of gas fluctuates, but they take advantage of this and to raise their rates to highly inflated prices.

Dear **. [redacted]:

Thank you for giving AmeriGas Propane, L.P. d/b/a Sawyer Gas (“AmeriGas”) an opportunity to respond to **. [redacted]’s complaint regarding running out of propane. 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 unfortunately allow his tank to run out of propane twice in 2013 the last time being in October. At that time AmeriGas District Manager [redacted] spoke to **s. [redacted] and apologized for the inconvenience and lowered the per gallon price for the propane, which she said was acceptable. We also changed their account status to a fixed cycle which means they would have a set delivery schedule to avoid this situation from occurring again.

Upon receipt of this letter **. [redacted] reached out to **. [redacted] directly to address his concerns but he informed **. [redacted] that he was terminating our services and that he had sent away our driver who was at his home to make a delivery. **. [redacted] again apologized for the confusion with **. [redacted]’ s deliveries and asked if anything could be done to save his business but **. [redacted] said no.

We value our customers and apologize for the inconvenience we have caused **. [redacted]. All of our customers are important to us and we are sorry we were not able to maintain his business.

Review: Price gouging persons to gain unlawful and unethical profit due to claims of shortages.

My complaint with the forementioned company is the fact that persons depend on their product to survive in cold conditions for heat. This company has repeatedly went beyond the general code of ethics by insuring retail sales such as tractor supply and other receive shipments in the so called shortage while customers are left in the cold to do without so that the overpriced profits can be made. I called this company 1/22/2014 this past Wednesday to place another order for fuel to keep myself and my property from freezing in these most unusual conditions. I called again on 1/24/2014 to be told that I was on a list even though I was out of fuel and tried to. explain my situation. I went to the tractor supply in [redacted] ,oh on friday to make the most from a bad situation where I had smaller tanks filled to run so that I would have heat. To my surprise they were selling the same product by the same company, Amerigas, at a much cheaper rate than Amerigas was charging me for it a person who was dependent on their service. The last bill I received Amerigas was so bold to take advantage of me and gouge the price of the fuel to $4.00 a gallon from the previous bill in which it was $2.99 a gallonDesired Settlement: I wish for Amerigas to make right the wrong doing I have suffered by being left without the means of heat in extreme temperatures. They could not deliver the fuel I needed in a timely manner but as soon as I called them today 1/27/2014, notified them I had to make alternate arrangement to survive it took them less than 3 hours to send a representative to my location to put a lock on the tank to be filled and unhook it. This is completely unacceptable, in my eyes they are telling me that if I do

Review: These guys should close their doors and call it quits. I was leasing the tank from Amerigas. I requested to have our tank filled at my residence back in January of this year, after several attempts to get them to fill it with no response from them I decided to have it removed and replaced by other company. I have called and have scheduled this tank to be picked up FIVE times since I removed it back in February and they have no time to pick it up yet. Not only has this company failed to pick up the tank but continues to send in the Billing statement for the leasing of the tank. I do not understand how a company of this magnitude would continue to ignore something like this.Desired Settlement: all I want is for this Propane tank to be removed from my property and a credit invoice for the most current bill.

Review: Myself and the account owner have for the last two years tried to get back on a monthly payment plan with automatic delivery. Amerigas stopped those services approx. 2 years ago with no warning. After a [u]DOZEN[/u] attempts to get the service restored through our local Amerigas dealer, we are still not on the plan we have asked for. They continue to tell us that they have to contact their people and they will call us back. Well, rarely do they even call us back, and last time I talked to Amerigas in [redacted], "[redacted]", then it was implied that it is our fault that we're not on auto payments anymore that we should have payed a $350 bill that resulted from a much needed delivery because we were not on auto delivery anymore. We do not even receive bills anymore since this started happening 2 years ago! I have spoken multiple times to [redacted] and [redacted] at our local Amerigas dealer.Desired Settlement: We just want to be put back on our original plan and RESUME MAIL BILLING! Wouldn't hurt to zero our bill out too because of all the trouble and lost heat during the winter months.

Review: This is the correspondence I sent to Amerigas 9/13/2013:

I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS REGARDING MY BUDGET PLANS FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS. WHEN I CALLED TO SET UP MY BUDGET PLAN FOR 2011-2012, [redacted] QUOTED ME A PRICE OF $4.03/GALLON FOR PROPANE AND A MONTHLY PAYMENT OF $424.00/MONTH. I ASKED WHY MY RATE WAS SO HIGH WHEN SHE HAD JUST QUOTED SOMEONE ELSE A PRICE OF $2.89/GALLON. SHE SAID SHE DIDN’T KNOW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT.

I GAVE HER THE PERSON’S NAME AND SHE THEN LOWERED IT TO $3.72/GALLON AND A MONTHLY PAYMENT OF $384.00/MONTH. I SHOULD HAVE DISCONTINUED MY SERVICE THEN, BUT I DECIDED TO STICK IT OUT FOR ANOTHER YEAR.

THEN,, WHEN I CALLED TO SET UP MY PLAN FOR 2012 – 2013 YEAR, I WAS QUOTED $3.40/GALLON AND A MONTHLY PAYMENT OF $339.00/MONTH. AGAIN, SHE QUOTED THE SAME PERSON, THE SAME DAY A PRICE OF $2.89/GALLON AGAIN. I WAS TOLD THAT THE LOCK IN PRICES WERE BASED ON CURRENT PRICES. MY TOTAL BILL FOR 2012-2013 YEAR WAS $5,400.00. I WILL BE PAYING ON IT UNTIL THE END OF THE YEAR. I HAVE SEVERAL PRINTOUTS THAT SHOW I WAS REALLY OVERCHARGED. I CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY $4,000 TO $5,400/YEAR TO HEAT A 1400 SQFT WELL INSULATED HOUSE. THE NUMBERS JUST DON’T ADD UP. WITH NO INSULATION AND MORE SQ. FOOTAGE, IT WOULD NOT COST THAT MUCH TO HEAT A HOUSE. I DON’T LIKE A LOT OF HEAT ANYWAY. SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG WITH THIS WHOLE PICTURE. DELIVERIES WERE MADE TO MY HOUSE EVERY MONTH THIS PAST WINTER (7) VS. 4 OR LESS IN PAST YEARS. I EVEN GOT A DELIVERY ONE SUNDAY NIGHT. MY NEIGHBOR CAME OVER AND SAID WHAT’S GOING ON? SHE SAID, “SHE WAS IN THE AREA AND DECIDED TO STOP BY.” EVERY TIME A DELIVERY IS MADE, THERE ARE EXTRA CHARGES ALSO. I JUST CANNOT AFFORD THESE PRICES, ESPECIALLY WHEN I KNOW OTHER PEOPLE ARE PAYING MUCH LESS. THESE ARE MORE LIKE OIL PRICES.

I EXPECT A RESPONSE TO THIS WITHIN THE NEXT 10 DAYS . IF NOT HEAR FROM YOU, I WILL PURSUE FURTHER ACTION.

________________________________________________________________________________...⇄ />
I did not get any response from Amerigas. Today I received a phoney bill from Amerigas requesting immediate payment. I have been making payments on that rediculous bill monthly. I recieved a bill tody with extra charges (dated for April, 2013). How is this possible when I was on their budget plan in April and was paying $339.00 per month. They have added an additional $208.92 to my account for no reason. I am currently not on their budget plan.

I have several files that I can submit to back up what I am saying. I have copies of the checks that I sent them recently. I will submit these files upon request.Desired Settlement: I would like to have my account adjusted to reflect what others in my neighborhood were paying for propane for the last 2 years. I would also like to have that $208.92 removed from my account. I would also like to have an explanation as to how [redacted] arrived at my quote versus what she quoted other people on the exact same days.

That last bill I received is very typical of Amerigas. They also make you pay for 10 months even when you have met your obligations for the year. I questioned them about what happens when you pay beyond your budget obligations. I was told the excess is credited to your account. They credited me that one time after I questioned them. I have also not been credited.

[redacted]’ complaint, we investigated the allegations contained therein and provide the following response based on our findings.

Office Manager, [redacted], has been in contact with **. [redacted] to discuss her concerns with her budget pay amount.

[redacted] will be receiving a contract in the mail which she will need to sign and send back to her local office.

Review: Propane was delivered to [redacted], [redacted] on Oct 28, 2013 without it having been ordered by [redacted]. I own my own propane tank and I did not place this propane order. Now Amerigas wants me to pay for the propane that I DID NOT ORDER. I have spoken to Amerigas twice and told them twice that they need to come pick up the propane that was delivered. Amerigas told me that they don't know when they will be back to pick it up. My complaint is that Amerigas delivered propane to me that I never ordered and don't want.Desired Settlement: DesiredSettlementID: Other (requires explanation)

I would like everyone to know about how this company does business. I have a friend that Amerigas did the same thing to-delivered propane to her that she did not order and she had to get them to take it back. Now out of the clear blue sky Amerigas does the same thing to me.

Review: Upon ordering Amerigas' services, I was told the current price of propane was $2.30 per gallon or so and that would be what I would be charged for my initial tank fill. That price could change as the price of gas falls or rises, I was told, but it wouldn't fluctuate too wildly unless there was some kind of disaster in America or the Middle East, etc. A couple weeks after the tank was filled, I received a bill showing a charge of $4.90 per gallon. I called to find out why I was charged so much and I was told that $4.90 per gallon was the current price for propane. Since it was my initial order, they were willing to reduce that to $1.99 per gallon, but they told me my next refill would be or could be around that $5 per gallon mark. I immediately told the customer service rep handling my phone call that this was not what I was told when opening my account, and that I want my account immediately cancelled and the tank picked up.

I was told the tank would be picked up by Friday, November 22nd. It never was. I called the [redacted] office multiple times starting the week of November 25th and was told by [redacted] that the tank would be picked up the next day, and then the day after, etc. etc. It still sits next to my house.Desired Settlement: I want the tank picked up immediately. Additionally, I have had to keep my pool heater running with the pilot light because I didn't want gas to leak. So, whatever small amount was used (to fuel the pilot) since the tank was installed, I want to make sure I am not charged for any of it. The pool heater and the propane installed WERE NEVER USED.

Review: They do not answer phones in less than 30m even for a gas leak! The office is consistently unable to contact the field reps and they do not keep appts

I have been trying to get a tank they installed to be connected for TWO MONTHS. They do not keep appts not answer the phones. I did not chose them as they purchased the perfectly good company we used for the last 5 yrs.Desired Settlement: I would like a full refund of the install/fill cost(est $700) and a guarantee of timely service or a removal of their tank so I can get another company.

Review: I cancelled my service and had my tank removed over a year ago, and they are still billing me after multiple calls to the office said it was corrected

I cancelled my service and had my tank removed over a year ago, 100% because I couldn't deal with the billing errors and incompetence of my local office (to the point where they even tried to deliver a tank to the wrong address multiple times). I got a bill 2 weeks ago for annual maintenance, and when I called in to my local office, the woman apologized and said she took care of it, since I clearly no longer have a Amerigas tank. Now, Im getting automated messages to call my local branch to avoid disruption of service, so clearly, they didn't properly cancel the service after multiple attempts. I am very frustrated, and don't know what else to do. I tried contacting the corporate office and they told me all billing issues can only be dealt with by the local branch office.Desired Settlement: I want confirmation of the cancellation of my account, with an assurance I won't be dealing with this another year from now.

Review: I called Amerigas in [redacted],MA for a delivery of propane to my home at 9:09am Monday May 5,2014,stating that I thought I was very low,or, out because I did not have very much hot water when I had showered earlier that morning.I am cash for delivery customer,and, have to call when I need a fill.I provided my [redacted] debit card information,and,told the customer service person,that I would call the office back that afternoon at approximately at 2:30pm,as I was currently at work and was unable to read the gauge to determine whether the tank was actually empty. I arrived home at approximately 2:40pm,checked the gauge,which was reading "R",or,in essence,empty.I spoke to a customer service person,whose name escapes me,and she explained that an "emergency" call would be an extra $95.00,and, then proceeded to tell me that the propane would not be delivered until at least Wed.May,7,2014,when I told her that was unacceptable,since I was being charged for an "emergency"fill.I also explained that I have a 9 year old disabled child that needs special care,including frequent bathing.This person told me that someone would have to be at the house,because the pilot to the water heater,and,furnace would need to be ignited.I then told her that I was a nurse,and,worked until 2:00pm everyday,but,would be home by 2:30pm the following day, Tues.May 6,2014.This person then told me that they could not possibly do any deliveries at that time because of their office hours.I again stated that I was being charged a $95.00 fee for an "emergency" fill,she very grudgingly stated that the delivery would be "around"2:30pm the next day,Tues.May 6.2014.I arrived home from work at approximately 2:15pm today,I again called Amerigas in [redacted] at 2:50pm,and,spoke to "Patty" who assured me that the propane would be delivered shortly.I called the office 3 times between 5pm-6pm.The [redacted] office was closed,so, I was connected to the Amerigas "emergency" service.I explained the situation,and,the woman I spoke with was very helpful.Desired Settlement: I would like an apology,for I did finally get the propane,and pilots ignited at 7:30pm.I would also like the customer service people in the [redacted] office to give a more detailed explaination of "emergency" services and the extra charges that their patrons incur when they are out of propane.I am a widow,and,have been patronizing this particular business for many years.I am going to be selling my home in the near future,and,can not,with good conscience recommend this company to the new owners.

Subject: complaint dated 10/28

I submitted a complaint yesterday regarding Amerigas Propane. I have since been able to speak to a manager and the issues have been resolved.

Thank you,

Review: I'm a new customer of AmeriGas and I had a gas tank delivered to my residence on 10/7/13. The delivery driver who dropped off the tank damaged my gravel driveway during the delivery process. There is a indention (hole) left in my driveway from where the tank was set down prior to being installed.I called AmeriGas on 10/18 to speak with the Customer Service Manager regarding the damage and was told he was out of the office for training and would follow up on 10/21. I did not hear from the Customer Service Manager, so I followed up on 10/22/13 and left a message from him. To date I still not heard back from the Customer Service Manager regarding my issue.Desired Settlement: I request that AmeriGas refill the hole in my driveway with equivalent gravel and/or credit my account for the damages.

Review: Multiple complaints to process but first is lack of customer service. I moved from my old home around the time while traveling alot. I called amerigas, and left a message with all account info and phone number where I could be reached. I had also left the tank level from the propane tank at my old house(60%). I stated in the message that I would like a refund for the current fuel left in the tank as of April 11th and that I was canceling my service at that time. Time went on and I never thought to check back to make sure they did their jobs since this is a large company. Well today I got a bill for $99.00 for the amerilock fee and to my shock I had no credit. These are just a few issues that I have experienced in the last year working with this company.Desired Settlement: Refund the 60% fuel from my old 500gal tank at today's fuel rates,(your not going to charge the new customer more for the fuel you buy back from me). Remove the amerilock fee and cancel my account. Pretty simple since I do not want anything that is not mine. Keeping the fuel is stealing from me any way you look at it.

I am rejecting this response because:

I have called and got the matter resolved on my own, although no refund has been received as of yet, they say it will be soon. To contradict the message from Amerigas, I got a call a few days later telling me that they had no record just like the letter from amerigas said. This was a voicemail, and upon

Review: I have used Amerigas propane for years (13). A few years ago (5 or more) we upgraded the propane tank as we added a gas fireplace to the home. Thus, we were using a gas fireplace occasionally in addition to our cooktop. Last year my husband passed and I have been on a tight budget. I have not used the gas fireplace and cooking is to a minimum. Amerigas is now charging me over $90.00 for not using my gas. They said I need to use a minimum amount, (they have not told me what that is). Really over $90.00 for not using gas I already paid for. She states if I don't use the gas they are charging me a rental fee on the tank! Is this even legal? I am outraged.

This practice seems so wrong. I would like the charges dismissed.

Review: Over and over again Amerigas did not deliver propane to us as scheduled leaving us many times over without propane. On our last time without service we spoke with them and made sure we paid our account in full and then canceled our account. Their gas prices were as much as a $1 over competitors price per gallon as well. After they finally picked up their tank which we paid a regular rental fee for, from our property they sent us a bill with an entry for "Other Adjustment". After such a bad experience with Amerigas, I wasn't about to pay some hidden fees. After talking to them, they are charging $120 for them picking up their tank from our property. Amerigas practices are terrible, and I highly recommend any consumer to stay away from this company.Desired Settlement: After such poor treatment of us as their clients, I would expect they want to at least be fair to us and not bill us for the pick up the tank after I had confirmed the full payment of our account with them.
