Unlike so many price comparison sites we are not affiliated with any oil supplier (and never have been!). We're not a broker.
That means:
- You don't pay commission.
- We keep our independence and you get to do whatever you want (like phone your usual supplier).
If you've just found us, we've being going since 2008, long before many of our imitators.
Currently through advertising.
The advertising that used to appear on this website was handled by Google. We do not choose which ads appear.
It's just not feasible to phone up ever supplier numerous times per day and check what their price is.
At times when the price of oil can vary greatly, it would also lead to inconsistent comparisons.
Ultimately it would be a nuisance for everyone - for the oil distributor to take the call, for us to make the call and for you when you phone the supplier only to find the price is out of date.
We seek out oil distributor websites that display their prices online.
If you are an oil distributor that wants to be featured, please contact us and we will try to include your website.
Some oil distributors will not have the same quote for everyone.
Prices can vary by location and whether you phone them or use the internet. There are obviously different costs involved for the oil distributors depending on where you live and how you go about getting your oil.
Thats pretty much it. Our only tips are if you are't completely out of oil then watching the price trends might save you money by showing if prices are beginning to rise or fall.
And tell your friends!
