with the UFC Que Choisir, a group purchase offer to pay less

When in 2021 it was vital to pay a median of €840 to fill a tank of 1 thousand liters of home gasoline oil, at this time we're extra at €1040. A value enhance of just about 24%, as a results of hovering oil costs.

In reality, the practically 250,000 households still heating with oil in Hauts-de-France (that is the case for five% of households in the North and 10% of households in Pas-de-Calais), really feel the full pressure. It is for them that the client affiliation UFC Que Choisir has determined to relaunch this 12 months a group purchase offer so as to acquire a discounted value.

The precept is easy, as Robert Bréhon, president of the regional affiliation, reminds us: ” We put local fuel oil distributors in competition – the biggest ones aren't always the cheapest – we study the best offers, which we submit to consumers who have declared themselves interested in the process. The latter then make the decision to subscribe or not to the group purchase offer. “.

During earlier operations of this kind, carried out for 5 years, the financial savings made might attain 100 euros for 2 tanks of 1 thousand liters, a frequent case.

Fortnightly offer

As gasoline oil costs change in a short time and distributors can't commit to the medium/long run, it was determined this 12 months to launch group purchase affords each two weeks, on Fridays (subsequent dates 21 January and this February 4). The client then has till Monday 2 p.m. to determine.

The operation is scheduled to final all through 2022, in contrast to the operations of the similar kind launched by the UFC for gasoline and electrical energy, suspended for lack of visibility on costs on the aspect of the distributors.
