	Sounds a bit like the deal is contracted out to (the cheapest) private company :-0 - which of course, could be a different one each year :-(

	just be thankful that you DO get a winter fuel allowance ................ you live in one of the very few countries, if not the only one, where pensioners do get such an allowance. Millions live in much colder places and get no help at all.

To help us and to get better results, please post as much detail as you can, especially name, date(s) and place. Also say what you already know.
