Costs nothing, the quicker this organisation reaches its target, the quicker we all get 10% off fuel.........Has to be worth it

Got this reply yesterday about the 5th in a year
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.
Don't forget that you can recommend Pipeline by clicking here http://www.PipelineCard.org/recommend.html and you can resign as a member at any time by sending a blank email to unsubscribe@PipelineCard.org.
Best wishes
Ben Scammell - Pipeline Card Founder

At least someone is trying
Maybe we should have French attitudes, they seem to get their own way with the frog government

Suely if the 'pipeline' cards are free to the public, then the admin costs and his 'expenses' would need to be paid by the oil company that he is negotiating with? If he can guarantee them 300,000 customers then that would probably make him a millionaire well before the the first anniversary of the scheme going live. I wish him luck.

I signed up months ago but if the fuel is not Tesco 99 or Optimax, I won't be touching it. There could be a lot of people thinking along the same lines...

Cheap Fuel
We signed up ages ago & E Mail someone called Ben somebody asking where our card is?.
I hope this is not a wind up, and it doesn't exist.
However, we mere mortals will not be the only one duped, " Hamster" from Top Gear and that chap from 5th Drive endosed it.
If it is a wind up, can't see the punch line comming?
Wonder,what do you all think?

Hi just signed up hope something comes of it,fed up of paying 99.9 for optimax
How many of you whingers on here drink? Smoke? You whine on about paying £4.50 for a gallon of optimax yet I'll bet most of you go out friday/saturday night and throw a few wife beaters down your necks at a cost of £18.00 for a gallon. Or smoke 20 **** a day at a £5er a throw. If you can't afford the fuel buy a car you can afford to run or stop whining like a load of bitches.

Not quite. Just received my monthly news letter and it contained nothing about the petrol prices.
All it mentioned was advertising requests and how so far pipeline an co had thus far told them to f**k off. However at the end they do recommend a good offer on sat nav systems
I am begining to think it was just a scheme to get a shed load of email addresses to pass on to third parties
