Bugsy Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Just had a delivery of 1,271 litres of oil at a whopping 920 €. A quick check on the internet reveals that is double the price of the UK[:@][:@] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJSLIV Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 A news item in mid February said the price has increased to 0.67 Euros per lite compared to the record high of 1,0143 in 2008.http://droit-finances.commentcamarche.net/news/101322-fioul-domestique-le-prix-du-litre-repart-a-la-hausseI should check they haven't filled you up with Diesel!

WJT Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 But isn't that close to what Bugsy paid? Just had a look and on 10, Feb. we bought 1500 litres and paid €1,011.[:(] That was for the premium though which is slightly more expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugsy Posted March 10, 2010 Author Share Posted March 10, 2010 Just checked with the company and they confirm the price is correct.Fioul Domestique 1,271 litresP.U. TTC = 724.00/1000 LP.U. HT = 605.35/1000LThe presume that TTC is the unit price including TVA and the HT unit price is excluding TVAThe totals are shown as€ HT = 769.40€ TVA = 150.80Total = 920.20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre ZFP Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 A quick check on UK heating oil prices, and they all seem to be very close in price, would seem to suggest that you would pay around £230 (€255) for 500 l so your 1271 litres would come to around €650 so yes, a lot cheaper than France.

Sunday Driver Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 A fortnight ago, we had a delivery of 1,217 litres of Super at a total of 849,85€ TTC. That's 58 cents a litre HT.Pointless comparing prices with the UK because that's what I have to pay living here.......[;-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugsy Posted March 10, 2010 Author Share Posted March 10, 2010 This one, yes indeed. Just need a bit of guttering to divert 1200 litres from the letter box to the oil tank [:P][:)]http://www.petroldirect.com/. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chancer Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I think you are making fun of me, of course they cant deliver oil through your letterbox you telecharge it [;-)]Using a device similar to this one http://www.mensup.fr/usbwine/?act=insc&mp=USBWINE&o=92&p=61 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Zoff Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Perhaps I should bring back all my "empties", filled with this stuff in the UK. Hopefully those nice customs people won't notice/mind at the ferry terminal. Will make a change for a tranny filled with bottles to be going in the other direction.Could this be to the answer for all those people asking about how to make a living in France?
