My service from oil fast is always 5 star-that is why I commit to a monthly payment to them for my orders instead of trying to comparing costs and going else where at time of ordering. My oil tank is... See more

Oilfast at Insch

I've been using Oilfast at Insch for years. They are always very helpful when I speak to them on the phone. The delivery is always prompt. There is no disruption to the area of ground they have to trail the hose along.

You delivered oil to me when I hadnt ordered it, I sent emails asking why this had happened, I also left a message on your answer machine, as no one seemed to be answering the phone, there was no response to that message either.

Great company Great customer service

Fantastic company great customer service. If your low on oil they will deliver it as quickly as possible. Been a customer for nearly 9 years now won’t go anywhere else. Paying monthly is a great option as well as it’s suits me budgeting every month.

Excellent Service

Jane Ewing is superb. Her customer service is outstanding and the drivers are also wonderful getting the oil to all my oil group members no matter the weather, even in the recent storm. I have a lot of elderly people in the group and they are always grateful for the excellent service provided by Oilfast.

1000 litres ordered on 2nd January with a forecast delivery of 3 days. I left two messages asking for a call back. Response was that my address is inaccessible to a four wheel tanker and that an extra fee will be charged for delivery on a small vehicle. Although we live in a remote area, we are regularly visited by other vehicles including large garbage trucks and other oil suppliers.
