Member Offer: My Esso Card

but where in the original promotion did it mention Pump King, on the face of it it looked as though the club were introducing this promotion in conjunction with Esso, and as i have said before, Pump King were involved with the Shell card introduced more than 1 year ago.

The original link given by the club directed you to what looked like an official Esso web site, it was only, probably, after thousands of members had registered did Pump King come to the fore.

A very dodgy deal with a very dodgy company, 2 years in the making, put forward to the members by a club that clearly did not do their homework.

No new card received here... my original card that used to work, was apparently deactivated a couple of weeks ago (surprise surprise - no communication or heads up from the utterly incompetent pump-king), so that I only found out when presenting the card to pay for fuel.  Fortunately, I had other cards with me - fully expecting the scam that is this promotion to fail! 

Pump-King repeatedly ignore emails or requests for information, and I find it laughable and ridiculous that the club continues to promote this scheme, despite this now being something like the 1052nd post on just this thread (not to count the various facebook commentaries!), suggesting the club are well aware that there are serious problems that should have be resolved before endorsing this.

I assume the company has promised to pay the Club commission on sales and so I hope they pay up promptly.

The payments to the Club are likely to be based on the number of members that join up and then actually make purchases. The payout may well be triggered by something such as the fifth time the card is used. So the Club may not be getting the Golden Egg they have been expecting but just the same brown and smelly deposit that is being dumped on the members.

No new card received yet and if it does not arrive I wont be chasing them either.  My wife today bought unleaded at 1.14 per litre, pump king price this week 1.19. at Applegreen in Bridgend. Need I say more? 

Well, I had the text stating categorically that I would have my Esso Card delivered at the latest by today...no surprises, it hasn't arrived!

Not that I'll be using it (if indeed it ever makes an appearance)...I've cancelled my card details as frankly, I have no trust in such a dodgy company whatever they are called.

I had intended to use the Esso card whilst we were away in the van but found that a nearby Asda was a full 3p a litre cheaper for diesel than this week's texted price..pumpkin will need to lower the price before I consider using it again.. If I get a card, and if I get a login that allows me to change the card number.. 😏

I think just as a trading name but not as an entity in its own right aka a legal persona. Companies big and small are can be quite naughty about clearly disclosing who they are who they are.

These are off shoots of global companies. Here's a LINK but it's all out there on the web. I don't think this part of the set up is the problem something appears to have gone wrong nearer to the ground.

We'll,my card hasn't arrived, so I'm cancelling the debit card on the account.

i wouldn't trust this bunch of clowns further Thani could throw them.

if something goes wrong, you have no chance!

Goodbye!

So who did the "due process" that should have been carried out before such a scheme as this was entered into and promoted by the CC?
