Thats interesting. I was wondering if they would come down or if we had seen the low point this year already. The other thing is whether Truss gets in as Tory leader and does something that lowers prices. Who knows?!This is strange, I’ve done comparison direct with ticknells and western fuels, also a local buying group and another comparison site, boiler juice have always managed a penny or two cheaper, maybe a local thing
Can get the odd anomalies but this is over the last ten years, not just recently.

Stock market oil prices are tumbling in last 48hrs, will be a delay to our market or we may indeed never see it if it recovers quickly.
Im probably going to order next week and hoping for back in the high 80p range

It could be a regional thing, that's why I'm intrigued. I suspect a lot of Boilerjuice customers see it as an easy click and pay option and have no idea they could be paying £50-100 more than they need. I always thought the whole theory behind these services is you place an order and then they manage it until they have enough to get some sort of discount and that's where they make their cut. We could all do the same if we just clubbed together with local oil users and placed and order that meant the oil firm could bring a full load to one area.
I think the other thing is you need to compare like for like, I've had it where Boilerjuice were very close on price but it would say something like "Delivery before September 19th" local company would saying "End of week early next". Those are clearly two different levels of service.

Im not a gambling person and really cant see it dropping much now, you only have to look on this forum how many folks are down to the dregs or hanging on a bit longer for a price drop that there will be a massive demand for the stuff once the weather turnsThis is strange, I’ve done comparison direct with ticknells and western fuels, also a local buying group and another comparison site, boiler juice have always managed a penny or two cheaper, maybe a local thing

Price per kWh electric 52p, petrol 17p, diesel 18p, gas 15p, heating oil 10p - either the rest are due to come down significantly or heating oil at £1 a litre is dirt cheap... I'd expect it to go up at least 50% in light of the other energy increases.

Possibly, but most electricity generation has moved from Coal to gas , so gas directly affects the cost of electric.
I use on average 4000L a year so my bill will double
.Presumably those figures depend on boiler efficiency?

Not really, its the energy priced per kWh - if you have a lower efficiency boiler you might be sending a higher % of the energy up the flue than into the water but input energy cost is still the same.

Same here although with Home Fuels Direct. Local supplier 99p excl vat HFD 95p ex vat.

Lot of faulty window catches in Russia due to sanctions, I believe. So perfectly understandable.Don't say too much or you may have an accident.

I'm West Wales, and for a 600L fill of my 1100L tank - was at £106.9/L which I had yesterday to see us right through winter and well into 2023.
My local supplier said the trend was prices accelerating upwards, so I bit the bullet now, as the way things are going with everything....
(Few weeks ago they said it had dropped briefly to 88p - dammit).

Couldn't agree more along with air tightness. Insulation prices will of course increase, PV stuff is on a backlog etc.
Been preaching a fabric first approach with the house to SWMBO for years. Fell on deaf ears.

I have two full 13kg Gas-it refillable lpg bottles rescued from my written off Hymer and the way things are going it may be cheaper to cook in the van.
Luckily my place was built with those 6" "Celcon" thermal blocks as the inner skin (facebrick outer skin) - so it's walls are pretty good.
(Some houses nearby with same construction caved to have cavity wall insulation added.... and then suffered from horrendous damp/wet - then had to have it all taken out again. I figured the air gaps there for the purpose of preventing damp transfer, and I didn't want to bridge it - and I was proved correct)
