It just means that if you decided to go for another supplier like Flogas, or you go for Safefill then you won’t get anything back from Calor if you return your bottle(s). But the actual refund reduced quickly with time so it’s hardly a lottery win.Thanks for the reply. I did not receive any "Agreement". Just a till receipt for 38 quid. No paperwork at all. The sales girl said sign in on line, but failed to find out how to do that. Think I'll forget it and just plod on.
Not so sure about the "no-refund" bit.It just means that if you decided to go for another supplier like Flogas, or you go for Safefill then you won’t get anything back from Calor if you return your bottle(s). But the actual refund reduced- quickly with time so it’s hardly a lottery win.
It seems to have settled down now - I paid £25 for a full exchange Calorlite yesterday.People were paying up to £50 for an empty Calorgas bottle at one time due to shortage of bottles for exchange.
I still have my original Calor rental agreement from 1983 - it was for 7kg Aluminium Butane cylinders, long since withdrawn - the sliding scale goes down to 25%, not zero, and remains constant at that level indefinitely - mind you, £4.50 per cylinder might as well be zero as the % is based on the original rental value!It is well over 30 years since we went for the Galor cylinders so the memory is a bit faded. I know we did sign a document then but computers now mean this sort of thing can be done without signatures so possibly they have dropped the requirement. It did have some refund value then which ran for a few years on a sliding scale, but after that there was nothing.
