Important: these options help you put money aside towards future oil purchases; they are not savings accounts and do not pay interest. Contact Patterson Oil if you need to confirm your balance, change an instruction or understand how to apply funds to an order.

Saving scheme questions

Which option is most flexible?

The PayPoint card and a bank-managed Standing Order let you decide when or how much to add, subject to the minimum PayPoint top-up. Direct Debit is suited to a regular monthly amount.

Can I change my monthly Direct Debit?

Yes. The Patterson Oil accounts team can adjust the amount with your permission. Contact the team before the next collection date to discuss the change.

Are all oil stamps accepted?

No. Only certain schemes are accepted. Check the current oil-stamp page or contact Patterson Oil before relying on a particular stamp.
