Dear Revdex.com.To supplement the above listed complaint, I have attached the letter I received from Consolidated Gas Cooperative wherein they describe intent to remove the propane tank I rent if I do not pay a $service fee for usage under gallons annually or buy at least gallons of propane nowI have also attached a copy of my contract with Consolidated GasThere are no minimum purchase requirements in the contract that would trigger removal of the tank or charges of service fees for low usage.Thank you for your attention to this matter
Consolidated Gas has a contractual obligation to maintain the tank at my residenceAgain, there is no minimum purchase requirement in the contractIf they remove the tank they are breaking the law by violating a legal contractAs well, it is not legal to attempt to extort money from customersAnd the truth is that many businesses make little or no money and sometimes lose money on a few customersI don't use much water but my water company has to continue providing itThe option of me purchasing my own gallon tank, as suggested by Consolidated Gas, is also not acceptable for several reasonsFirst, it is money I will have to spend only because Consolidated Gas is attempting to unlawfully terminate the contractAnd the cost of the tank is not the only expense I will incurI will have to pay an installer (it is not legal for an unlicensed person to install a tank) and buy a regulator and probably moreThe gas line to the house is actually mine (same line that was there when I moved in in 1992) but the contract says it belongs to Consolidated GasSo if they rip that out, I will also have to pay for a gas lineWe are now talking expenditure of many HUNDREDS of dollarsSecond, with a gallon tank, I will be unable to use my furnace even if I am able to get it repaired this year - which I would like to do but I can't guarantee itA gallon tank will also probably not have sufficient surface area so that enough propane vaporizes to supply the furnaceThe vaporization rate will be even lower in cold weather.Consolidated Gas also claims this was a heating accountI don't see that in the contract eitherI can tell you that they originally wanted to deliver a gallon tank and I had to argue pretty strenuously to get them to install the gallon tank since even when I used my furnace that is about the most I ever used in a year.I am on firm footing in this disputeIf Consolidated Gas persists in attempting to violate the contract, remove the tank and/or extort money from me, I will have to terminate negotiations through the Revdex.com and instead file a consumer complaint with the Ohio Attorney General's Office
