    ...you cant please all of the people all of the time...never look a gift horse in the mouth 150 ltrs could be a saving of £15, and it could be yours ET just by simply carrying a small piece of plastic in your wallet and a chance to win fuel for 12 months FOC, how good would than be laughing

    sorry was getting a bit carried away, of course it is not 12 months fuel FOC, but 175 ltrs or 75 ltrs, combine this with the £10 xmas bonus for OAP's and your could be looking at £20 surprised

    Put it this way, Rufs, if Easy dropped a £10 note, or even a £20, down a drain, do you imagine he’d bother to fish it out?

    Believe me I've brought my children up on that saying, not that they listened very often. If you're a dedicated Esso user and have no choice it might be useful, other than that it's just another card and I would guess that when most need fuel they'll hope to find the best price elsewhere.

    put it this way, if the club offered £2 off of every booking provided you carried an additional loyalty card do you think ET would turn it down even if it only saved him £20  per annum undecided

    oh without doubt you are probably right, but in my case cheapest today would be Asda at £1.31, if i travel another half mile i will get Esso at £1.26, Shell my nearest is £1.33, and because the admin side re the issue of this card was a bit of a shambles, i get £5 credit, bonuslaughing

    Does anyone know how this actually works? I believed the fuel price was discounted but I used my card for the first time today and I paid the price that was on the pump. No discounted rate...

    If you paid via your Esso card you should pay the discounted rate, however the receipt still shows the pump price.undecided

    Check the website https://www.myessocard.com/welcome and your purchase will show there, under receipts, and the amount will also appear on your banking statement at the reduced rate, or online if you have it.

    It does take a few days though.

     

    Having had experience of Agency fuel cards in my time with the transport industry, this is quite normal practice.

    Thanks for the reply. I have checked my online banking and the Esso website, but nothing on there as yet. I bought premium diesel which should hopefully be 8p per litre cheaper than the pump price

    I thought the price was for a certain week as I have text messages telling me the price from a date for that week, so doesn't matter what the pump price is you pay the price that esso put the card at.

    correct, this week regular diesel is £1.26, so even if pump price is higher you only pay the £1.26, we should receive a text message every Friday giving a list of all prices.

    HI Ken

     

    I can confirm, all fuel types are indeed included in the scheme.

    According to the club website this is the company offering the card to club members. At the bottom of the page after expanding terms and conditions. Maybe they can help. "https://www.caravanclub.co.uk/membership/member-offers/MyEssoCard/ "

    Help!  Perhaps I'm missing a trick here but I was always told that top brand fuel is better quality than any supermarket fuel, so in addition to any savings you should also be getting a better quality product that should mean a small increase in mpg and better engine performance / longevity - or have I got that wrong?

    And while I'm here how do you activate the Esso card once you've got it?  My start up letter tells me to visit my profile to receive my pin.  I've opened up the "My Esso Card" page and can't see anyway to access my profile so can't activate my card.  Can anyone tell me how to get to my profile - please?

    TIA

    IMHO you are correct as the premium fuel is a high octane and burns hotter and cleaner. I can feel a big difference in my vehicle between the two. My handbook even states to use high octane fuels.  Go here for esso card

    Signed up a couple of weeks back - card turned up but no PIN on account profile. Emailed yesterday and today there's a PIN.

    However, no texts about prices - have emailed about that as well.

    This does look like a good offer especially in rural and semi rural areas where the nearest SM pumps are too far away to make it worthwhile. Our local is Esso.

    In September we were in Oxfordshire and urban pump prices generally were 10p / l higher than rural Wiltshire!
