View Full Version : Lower fuel prices?
Got an email from the FairFuelTax people. Costs sod all so got to be worth a look.
I am pleased to say that the campaign is making great progress. The tax issue has not gone away but we are now in discussions with a major fuel retailer to negotiate discounts on petrol across the whole of the UK. This will be achieved through a special discount card which will be issued free of charge to all our members as soon as the group is large enough.

I just wish tescos would hurry up and distribute their super super unleaded all across the country lol

Drax were very different, they were trying to become a cunsumer fuel retailer with no forcourts and were also relying on a taxation loophole that didn't exist.
PipelineCard is working in conjunction with a major UK retailer to bring this discount....I guess put simply this is a loyalty card.
Regards,
Ben

Joined - Dunno if I'd use it tbh, depends what fuel it covers and where from I suppose. Thought I'd lend support though 8)
went down morrisons for fuel today 89.9p per litre....thats more like it. especially as the texaco up the road is 93.9
i'll join up.
texaco in town is 87.9 at the min. i like living in the sticks
I've noticed the price has fallen! its 87.9p for unleaded at my local shell, and the 99 RON super unleaded at tescos cost me 91.9p - not bad, going in the right direction!

wonder which retailer they are hoping for discount with? as they already have there own loyalty cards....
BP - nectar
Shell -pluspoints
Total - unsure but i bet there is a total card
Morrisons - again as above
Tesco - clubcard
hmmmmmmm
but that kind of "loyalty" card sucks as you only tend to get 1% back.... which if you were to apply that to current fuel costs is between naff all and fook all lol
what is needed is a bulk buy kind of scheme where you just fill up and it goes on your account and a tthe end of the month you pay for what you used, this can be treated as one big lump of fuel that would allow for a good discount, and obv the more you use the cheaper per litre it gets. Just like bulk buying other stuff works.
and the 99 RON super unleaded at tescos cost me 91.9p
Woo, super super unleaded is coming closer my way :lol:
that 99 ron stuff is "ok" if your car can adjust (and id hope a gt4 could lol) but it made the omega run fecking hot :s
