Member Offer: My Esso Card

I can’t log in to access my PIN and they’ve ignored about 6 emails so far. Complete waste of time, wish I hadn’t bothered. I’m now directing my efforts at getting my non accessible account cancelled as I don’t have any confidence in this organisation. It’s about time the Club dumped them given the incompetence demonstrated in previous postings in this thread. Unbelievably bad!!

Finally got my card and I find the supposed savings are rubbish.

The text I got this week of £1.25.3 for diesel is exactly the same as the local super markets , so no saving at all.

Waste of time, strange the savings have disappeared now we get the cards!!

Still waiting for my card from 1st December, no replies from My Esso Card or whatever it is called now! Had messages from the Club telling me they are very sorry and that a replacement card is being sent, that was 3 days ago and still waiting. Now discover that the card has changed name as well as website being changed and the T&C have been altered without pre warning to those that have signed up! 

Members on here are asking the club to get involve (which they should), but lo and behold the only message from them arrives at 16:37 just before they close for the week-end.

Just what have we been allowed to get into here? The club should hold their heads in shame for not hepling their members and for not going into this beforehand.

According to what was said at the beginning if the pump price is the same as the text then you should get 1 pence less than the pump price!

Just got my weekly txt and unleaded is £1.183 - our local Asda is £1.137!

Thought this was meant to save money!

It only saves money if you want to buy Shell fuel. 

This new offer from the caravan and motorhome club for myessocard becomes more laughable each week. When I got the email notifying me of the deal I was a little sceptical but I thought it must be OK as the club are supporting it.  Before my card arrived the discount was averaging 8p per litre for regular unleaded and diesel compared to local Esso forecourt prices. Last week just before the card arrived the offer price went up yet pump prices at my local Esso station went down. Card arrived this week, offer price for regular fuel has gone up again for next week whilst local forecourt prices are down again. (Based on PetrolPrices.com website) To make things more laughable I can now buy Jet unleaded 4p per litre cheaper and diesel at the same as my offer price from Esso for the next week in a small town on a regular local route. So you can guess the next bit supermarkets in bigger towns are cheaper still!!
Is it a con I was asking myself? Then I read on here of changes to websites and T&C's and people being overcharged. Is it really a professional organisation?? I am still prepared to give it a try when out touring providing it's on my route but it certainly isn't worth going off the planned route for.
Like many more people I didn't get any satisfaction when asking Pumpking where my card was. I am not holding my breath for a satisfactory answer this time. Or is someone going to surprise me?

I note that this week's text giving the upcoming prices has originated from PumpKing not MyESSOCard as before.

Very long time for web-site maintainance to be going on.

And of course (if any one is counting) still no card from applying in November!

 Website down for a change of T&Cs perhaps.

No minimum but a max of 5 litres and must be in a plastic container with a left hand thread 

I waited about 8 weeks to receive the card I used it today for the first time. I generally use a supermarket but thought I'd give the expensive Esso station a go. I put £92 worth of diesel in and that's exactly what I was charged. It's not clear how this works maybe it's discounted before it's taken from my card? If not I'll not be using it again. Living in Bath the fuel is always expensive as Esso have driven all the smaller operators out so with only 3 filling stations in the city they charge what they like.
