  1. I had a horrible experience with rural gas co they had rushed me off the phone when I was just calling to get a estimate on a large tank. I would not call them again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Plus when I had finally gotten then estimate the price was way to high!

  2. They act like they don’t want to be bothered and have difficulty handling basic request. I ended up going to Pioneer and could not be happier.

  3. OVERPRICED, $1.30 per gallon more than every other provider. VERY POOR customer service, every encounter with their customer service people is worse than the last time. Do yourself a favor and shop around.

  4. This place sucks ass. Typical over burdened company trying to maintain in the pricey area known as Fairfield County. They tell you one thing and do another. Their price per gallon is much higher than most. I hope this company goes down in a fiery crash

  5. We just had a propane stove installed by Randy and John. Excellent job!! Very thorough, careful and professional. They treated my property like it was their’s.

    thank you

  6. Debbie needs some customer service classes. Rather than finding a way to smooth over the lack of communication on the part of the company, she used it to make me, the customer, feel small. Bravo Debbie- you know you reap what you sow right?

  7. I was with Rural Gas since 1998. I have seen this with many businesses…because of the anti-business climate in CT they develop cash flow problems and take it out on their customers. All of a sudden Rural Gas developed a collections …

  10. From the phone call to the company in the morning to the gentleman, Roger that came to handle our issues we had wonderful service. Roger could not have been friendlier or more efficient. He answered every question I had and the issue was resolved in no time. Definitely satisfied with the service. 🙂

  11. Rural has the audacity to charge a long time customer a $25 fee for a propane tank reading. The reading is nothing more than someone from Rural looking at a picture of the tank gauge that I took and emailed to them and emailing a quick …

  12. Roger G. showed up with our new 1000 gallon tank on his truck, friendly and cheerful. He proceeded to gracefully lift and direct that giant tank into its spot in our property like it was choeographed. Well done and pleasant! 👍🏽 …
