Cancelling a purchase depends on when the scheduled date occurs:

Same Day or Next Day

If the scheduled date is less then 2 days away, the customer must contact the oil supplier directly to cancel. Supplier contact information will appear in your email confirmation. Cancellation is not possible on Advantage Fuel.

Two Days or More

If the scheduled date occurs in 2 days or more, the customer can cancel on Advantage Fuel. After customer login, navigate to Customer Contol Panel, select Purchase History, and choose the Cancel button / link for the purchase.

Your credit card is only charged when the delivery is complete, using the number of gallons delivered. When you submit your purchase on Advantage Fuel, a Authorization Only transaction is used to verify the availability of funds, and reserve those funds. A Capture transaction (which charges the credit card) is used when the supplier posts your delivery. Your card issuer will then remove the excess reserve amount, which may take several days.

If Cash pricing is selected, only cash will be accepted by the oil delivery driver. Money orders and checks are not accepted. If you will not have cash available (as early as 5:00am), purchase by credit card instead. For Cash purchases, plan ahead and be prepared.

If Cash pricing is selected, a person must be present (as early as 5:00am) at the residential property to make cash payment at the time of delivery. For credit card purchases, no one needs to be home.

You may contact the supplier (phone number in confirmation email) for general information, but a specific time of delivery is not available due to the nature of the business. Deliveries can begin at 5:00am each day.

These are delivery only prices, which means low overhead. Full service prices have to factor in many other costs.

The two oil prices are based on the form of payment. It costs more to accept credit cards.

There is no quality difference. It is the same oil that all other suppliers use. The sources of oil are common to all suppliers.

The meter on each truck, which measures the quantity delivered, is inspected and sealed by the appropriate governmental department. The accuracy of meters is a legal matter, and all suppliers must comply.

Some suppliers do offer residential oil heat repair service (including oil burner repair).

Supplier insurance and licensure are mandatory operational requirements. The appropriate governmental departments oversee and enforce these requirements, including background checks for oil delivery licenses.

A service contract is not required. Some suppliers offer service contracts, while others can refer you to one that does.

Once a year oil burner service by a qualified technician is recommended. During the service, discuss this in further detail with the technician.
