This ex-customer was more than a bit amazed when checks written to F&S began being cashed by someone at the F&S operation but where not credited to the accounts of the check issuer. Attempts to get this error, or misappropriation of funds, corrected met with stone walling the likes of which hadn't been encountered by the check writer in more than 30 years of check writing.<BR/><BR/>Their service contracts were full of weasel words and exclusions which in some cases included annual furnace cleanings which they didn't perform but charged for. Kind of like taking money under false pretences. <BR/><BR/>The receiver's latest revelations about possible criminal behavior seems right on target. Based on what has occurred, firing the F&S/Village Oil family of companies has greatly improved all aspects of heating and cooling our household. We missed their final, ultimate collapse but it was clear to us something was seriously wrong with the management practices of these companies for some time. <BR/><BR/>The ongoing CT BBB files on this group of companies was a good indicator of things to come.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21123853.post-65433568976850789432008-12-11T22:09:00.000-05:002008-12-11T22:09:00.000-05:00So, 30 (deleted) family members end up getting the...So, 30 <I>(deleted)</I> family members end up getting the BioFuel plant for free. From what Carlton Helming said it was their lack of cooperation that made it impossible to sell this asset. How difficult is it for someone to identify the terms of a lease so that prospective buyers know this information before they bid on a business?<BR/><BR/>It is really a shame that so many innocent people lost money by prepaying for oil they never got and that <I>(deleted)</I> who said he was sorry for their loss ends up profiting. <BR/><BR/>Is this the new way of doing business? If it is, I just don't trust people that work that way.<BR/><BR/><I>I understand your frustration, but this post doesn't directly relate to the biofuel plant. And if you're going to make comments about non political people, I want you to include your name. I realize I'm far from consistent on this... but at this moment am inclined to require it.</I>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21123853.post-3888958498172781412008-12-11T19:34:00.000-05:002008-12-11T19:34:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
