We moved into our new house in December…
We moved into our new house in December and the previous owner didn’t transfer the propane service over to us. The only gas appliance in the house is a gas fireplace. We have an engineer drawing up plans for a renovation to include a stove and water heater to the system. In January the tank was empty. We called to get it refilled. We were informed that it would be a minimum of 3 weeks before they could come do something as basic as a refill. I called my cousin in Oneonta, AL who works for a propane company. He said that was ridiculous and that they will almost always show up for a simple inspection and refill within 3 business days - not 3 weeks. Every single time we call we are put on hold and told by a recording that they are experiencing an unusual amount of calls so the wait will be longer than usual . . . except that we have found out that this is a lie - it is NOT unusual but their daily practice. We went ahead and asked for them to come fill the tank anyway. Bad choice. They lied to us again, never showing up for the scheduled re-fill. We re-scheduled. They lied again. AGAIN they did not show. So, we are purchasing a tank twice the size of the one they have here and are going to use Southland Gas, Inc. instead. I have called our attorney to see how long I must give Suburban to come get their tank off our new property before I can dispose of it myself, and believe me, I will not be one second late on THAT schedule. Suburban Propane in Huntsville lie. They lie often. They lie about the little things. They lie about the big things. Be careful.
