Ripping us off? (Bill Moreland)

April 12, 2011 0

I’d like to ask Scottish Fuels through your paper, why is it that you can purchase petrol at 18 pence per litre cheaper in Dundee than you can at a service station here?

The price on Sunday 12th April in Dundee was 129.9p per litre. Is it that they’re only interested in ripping us off? In a captive market can they charge a much as they like?

If the price of a barrel dropped tomorrow would the price at the pump follow it? Don’t hold your breath!

Bill Moreland
Lofthus,
Brae.
