Member Offer: My Esso Card

Nothing to do with Pumpkin however thsi morning we noticed that Morrisons gave you 5p off a litre fo fuel if you spent over a certain amount.

Last week their price was £1.29 per litre however today the price was £1.299 a litre.  Seems a bit of a con for unsuspecting suckers?

We hardly ever spend more than £40 in Morrisons when doing our weekly shopping!

We have noticed that Tesco fuel prices also increase when their 5p per litre  off "offer" is on,

we used esso at Pboro yesterday pump price £131.9 PK price £125.9

Individual membership is £33.60, so yes, I was a little bit over. But it still boils down to the fact that you have to be a member! It is the same for those quoting Morrisons, you have to spend a considerable amount to qualify for the price reduction.

The point of the Esso Card is that those who use Esso can get a reduction, if people want to use supermarket fuel fine, just don't compare their price with Esso!

Card registration

Can you advise how to register a replacement card? The instructions given with the card are not appropriate, the website does not exist and the phone number is unobtainable. I got instructions by email to log in which I did but there is no link to enter a new card number and the existing number is not editable. Where is the missing link?

It might be worth closing your existing account, waiting a few days and then creating a new one?

I was pleasantly surprised to find that my account and data seemed to be completely erased when I closed it.

That is a good suggestion but to set up an account I also need an access number which is not included in the attached letter.

I had no problems registering my credit card (Tesco Mastercard) rather than debit card. Used it twice now no problems.

Thanks - when I tried to register my Tesco Mastercard last week I got a banner at the top of the screen saying that PK does not accept credit cards (must have recognised it from the card number).

I'll give it another try later this week now that the last transaction has cleared - will try a different credit card too.

Strange. Is yours a newish card at all? Mine was issued in 2017 but had my CC account with Tesco for years.

When I first signed up with Pumpking (or myessocard as it was) I did try to register my credit card and got the same message so something changed behind the scenes.

I had a PK card (which was never used as the cost was always higher than I could get locally) and decided to close that account due to all the problems discussed on this forum.

Now it seems to have settled down and PK reportedly accepts credit cards I decided to reapply and keep it in case it became advantageous to use eg motorways.

The two credit cards I tried to register with were both rejected (must use debit cards say PK!) so I tried with the card I had originally used.

This was also refused on the grounds that the details of that card were already registered and held by PK.

Now here’s the thing..

When I Deleted User my original account I (eventually) got an email from PK as follows

Since you have Deleted User the account all personal and bank details will be Deleted User from the system.

Kind regards,
Pump-King

So, if that is true, why do they STILL have my card details? Does this comply with data protection laws?

Would Rowena care to respond with an explanation or at least pass this to someone at the Club to comment.
