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.

To find out more about this member offer visit My Esso Card Member Offer on the Club website

There is a new web address

Yes.... exactly what I'd come to this thread to say.

I've received my card this week and the letter said quite clearly to log in to www.myessocard.com.  Like DMcNeill above, that website doesn't seem to be in operation.  However, the letter does give the https://pump-king.co.uk/welcome address right at the bottom of the page as a footer.  This works OK.

I just don't understand why they are still sending out letters with the wrong url in the body of the letter?

I think, if you read the OP the saving of up to 8p is for Premium Diesel

up to 5p for Standard Diesel.

Still nowhere near the supposed saving but......

Have another checkwink

The famous up to.  I find it very rare with anything that you save the full up to price

Apologies, you're dead right, I misread the OP, it is £0.05 for standard diesel but as you rightly say, what we are seeing is nowhere near the supposed saving.

No need to apologise John, I do it all the time surprised

I guess the maximum saving comes into play should folk be inclined to use motorway services?

I've now got the card, but I suspect it is going to be more useful when we are away from home.  I could be wrong, but our local supermarket fuel is amongst the cheapest I have seen anywhere in the country, although it seems to have levelled out a bit this last couple of weeks.

The link on the CAMC offer page also still goes to myessocard.com and doesn't get there.

Shouldn't take this long to fix a web address issue. A simple re-direct should suffice unless they aren't allowed to use the word 'esso' anymore.

exactly this, depends on where you are, I have been on the road this weekend Hampshire - West Sussex and regular diesel varied from Asda £1.29 - a BP station on the A3 £1.35, i filled up using my essocard last Friday at £1.25, which ever way you cut it, I winlaughing

As others have pointed out, it depends upon where you live to get that advertised saving. My local Northumbrian fuel highwaymen are charging 130.9 for diesel, with my nearest local supermarket at 123.7 - however that's 22 miles away and only good if I'm going in that direction. There is an Esso 8 miles away and 1/4 mile off my commute at 129.9, so if and when I get my pin (and now apparently a new card) it'll be worth it in the long run. But there again, the card price has varied somewhat over the last few weeks, so sometimes there'll be a decent saving, and others not. There's always going to be winners and losers.
