Hi everyone,

We wanted you to be the first to know about a new member offer with My Esso Card. The My Esso Card is a fuel card that provides savings at 1,300 Esso fuel stations to help drive down the cost of touring. Members are guaranteed to save on fuel at every Esso station across the UK with the only consumer facing fuel card.

We are the only organisation within the touring industry able to provide this offer to members.  

What is the saving?

On average members will typically save 8p per litre on premium diesel or unleaded fuel and 5p per litre on standard diesel or unleaded fuel. That’s a typical saving of £5.60 per tank on premium fuel or £3.50 on standard fuel (based on 70 litre tank of fuel).

The saving varies based on the My Esso Card special rate and the Esso pump price rate. In the unlikely event that the pump price is lower than the My Esso Card special rate members are guaranteed to save 1p per litre on the pump price. You can use the My Esso Card to fill up all your vehicles, not just the one you tour with.

There are no fees to sign up and no transaction or processing fees. You can also earn your Tesco Clubcard points when filling up.  

We are also running a competition for members for a chance to win free fuel.

To launch this great new offer, My Esso Card are giving Caravan and Motorhome Club members an exclusive chance to win free fuel. 10 lucky winners will win 175 litres of fuel and another 10 lucky winners 75 litres of fuel!  Members need to register for a card and fill by 31 December 2018 to be entered into the random prize draw.  Winners will automatically have the fuel credit added to their My Esso Card account.

Enough enough enough, had it now with this nonsense, should have packed it in months ago, card destroyed (at least I got one after 2 months of waiting), debit card changed and if I can get into account that will Be closed as well.

PK have sent me a text telling me the fuel offers for wk 10th Mar.

Then have sent another 41 text messages telling me the same..

If this is common to all members I think the price will rise next week to pay their telephone bill.

 Terrible company to deal with.  I've had over 70 texts this morning.

(9-3-18)

Their website is down (again) and from the looks of the front page, it may have been hacked. I would suggest to anyone that uses this company to keep an eye on their registered payment card, as details may have been stolen.

Texts are still arriving as I type this, very annoying as I have had to put my phone on silent.  I haven't found a way of blocking them yet on an iPhone. Usually you can add to a contact and block it but that hasn't worked for me. They are using the following number to text. 

7867 5464.  Probably why it cannot be blocked.

This company is nothing but trouble and I would avoid at all cost.

Just look at their reviews onTrustPilot. (especially this morning)

It's unlikely that they've been hacked.  More likely that they've realised that a new piece of code they released to the live environment in the last few days has gone haywire, and they've taken the easy way of taking the live site down whilst they investigate.

But ... they seem chaotic and don't seem to do enough testing.  As that lax attitude could well include skimping on penetration testing I'd tend to assume that your data could be breached at some point.

I've missed out - I only received 43 texts!!!

E-mail to cancel Pump-King card.

Bank regular payment cancellation form completed online.

Replacement debit card requested from my bank - thank goodness my spouse has an additional debit card on the same account.

Seriously unimpressed.  Imagine if you were abroad and had to pay to receive texts outside your plan.

The text on the front page of Pump Kings website is Hack speak.

I have just called my bank and cancelled my card as a precaution.

 

I would suggest anyone who has a card registered with Pump King do the same.

Thank goodness the other threads have been locked. 👏🏻👏🏻

It’s hard enough trying to keep up with this one without having 3 of them  to follow.

I see no evidence of hacking.  The landing page iss simply error 561 from Pantheon (the PK hosting provider).

https://pantheon.io/docs/errors-and-server-responses/

Of course, any company who really knew what they were doing would have a 'site down for maintenance' page up there instead.  But I don't see PK as terribly competent.

I agree, and the error appears, I would guess because they pulled the plug on the server to stop the multi texts.

I have just had another, single text, so they may well be working towards getting everything up and running again later today..
