So you need to spend nigh on 500 quid to break even, meanwhile lending
them money?

I just use:

http://www.petrolprices.com/

which is free. You need to register an email address, but I've seen no
spam traceable to them (I used a dedicated email address)

Nearly all of my mileage is private. Drive to work is a leisurely 6
miles through woodland (cycle and public transport not an option) so I
don't use a lot on weekdays...!

If I may reproduce one of the responses given in UKRM

Hey some guy reckons this company provide discounts on fuel for
ordinary motorists

5 pence of the litre. Check it out spamming****.org

Kinda looks fishy but they dont ask for bank detials you make payment
with paypal

what do you think


You're a spamming ****.

The web****e was knocked up in 5 minutes less than a month ago.

The contact details for the 'company' are that of an office also
allegedly used by around 30 other companies. So probably just somewhere
to have mail delivered, then.

The 'parent company' has been 'trading' since 2005, but has yet to post
accounts - indeed, this years are overdue, as is the tax return.

In sort, you're not only spamming, but you're a scamming ****tard, too.
"


So there ...

Why can spammers never spel rite ?

Easily done, I spend £300+ per month on fuel and if I could use the card
anywhere it would work out well for me.

This is what SCAMmell tried to do with his Pipeline card but failed
miserably when none of the companies would talk to him or negotiate.
He's still insisting that the pipeline card will be issued, but it's just
one excuse after another, month after month. At least he can make a bit
from the details he was harvesting.

The details I gave him were throwaway (pipeline@....); I suspect quite a
few people did that.
