Dear Pipeline Card Member,
Pipeline Card has been going since November and some of you are clearly getting fed up - and not just with the continual fuel price rises.
Emails are coming in every day saying "When are the cards coming?" "How many members do you need now? and "Why the delay"? Well guess what - we're frustrated too!
Nothing like this has ever been done in the UK before - it's not going to happen overnight. The petrol discount scheme they set up in Holland took around 18 months to get off the ground. I can certainly tell you that we all want this to work as much as you do - we have spent a lot of time and effort on it. There is a big gap between an agreement in principle and a finalised contract - but we are gradually overcoming some of the difficulties and we are getting closer.
I would like to be able to give you much more information but, unfortunately, we are bound by a non-disclosure agreement that carries a hefty financial penalty. So I can't even tell you who we are negotiating with. All I can say for now is that we are making progress, we are still hopeful of an announcement in the next couple of months, and we still need your support.
It is just possible that we will need to consider a different way of achieving our goal but the good news is that we have already been approached by another organisation who is interested in working with us.
There is other good news too. Thousands of our members have saved money on domestic heating oil this month and others have saved money on gas and electricity by using our price comparison service. It's not our main purpose, but it is a way of giving something back while our negotiations continue.
Over 9,000 blogs and websites are linking to us and our media support is still growing. So please keep telling people about us.
Rest assured; we are not going to lose sight of what Pipeline Card is all about. It's about all of us paying less for our petrol and diesel. We are definitely not going to do any deals with marketeers and spam merchants; and we are not going to give up.
That's it for now. Watch out for us on Fifth Gear - the Channel 5 motoring show - at the beginning of next month.

Best wishes
Ben Scammell - Pipeline Card Founder

ooops Sorry Mods - missed that
cheers Steff and Phredd - it's got to be worth filling in a form for a possible fuel saving at some point. :thumbup:
Medici I did indeed.
I first heard of Pipeline on Radio 2 some months ago and signed up. I think that the more we pressurise greed (as compared to profit) driven organisations there will come a time when they will have to do something....
Could someone please send it to me on a PM??
