No auto fill contract that I have ever known of. Like I said, even if I had one once upon a time, which I"ve had this same tank for nearly 15 years, I notified them almost three years ago that I didn"t need more than 50%. In other words even if they had me on "auto fill", FULL on my tank would be only 50%, NOT 80%. To that end I have had no problems with them overfilling it for the last three or so years, until now.
Beyond that, like I stated in the original post, I have been forced to be late on the payment and pay at the 45 day point, etc in really tough times past (not within the past three years though)and that was the very reason I told them to keep me full at only 50% so I never had to worry about getting hit with a huge, unexpected bill again and be put in that position. I really don"t like to pay my bills late, but when you are self employed, an are relying on others to pay you on time in order for you to get your stuff on time, crap often happens. Heck I have a very good relationship with our bank when it comes to getting things like the mortgage paid. If I"m going to be late because of the way my jobs fall in relation to beign able to complete and bill them out, all I do is call and let them know when the payment is going to be sent.
Basically I have never had a problem with any utilities or anything else in relation to not paying, or having them turned off, and never in my years with this gas company have I had a problem, until now. Like I said, I can understand them coming out and taking their product back, but not blocking my service to product I had already paid for, regardless of the situation. You can call it what you will, but to me it amounts to nothing but an attempt to intimidate me by an industry that seems to enjoy doing it, and I"m not that easily intimidated......
Ask the sewer company at out rental house. They demanded I pay the sewer bill because I still had the water on to the property. The water was on because I had to pressure wash and clean up the outside of the house......fluid that was not going down a sewer drain. They huffed and puffed, and said I had to pay, because the service was available/usable, and that was that. I flat out refused and told them that if I didn"t want water, power, or natural gas service the company would have it turned off....and it wasn"t my problem they didn"t have sense enough to put a valve in the line to prevent their service from being used by someone who didn"t actually need it. It took them a month, and supposedly a call to their home office, but they eventually put a valve in the line so the service couldn"t be used...and I never paid them dime for the use of a service I didn"t need.....
