Just a warning to anyone who uses fuel cards for their business.
We have had accounts with a well known fuel card issuer for a number of years, allowing us to get fuel from a chain of petrol stations whose name resembles the house of a snail.

I had an invoice on my desk the other day, its one of those invoices that is checked for the transaction, but not the values... We are currently paying 130.7p per liter for diesel, as opposed to the 99.9p in the garage up the road.

We used to get price confirmations weekly, but our accounts lady stopped getting them, pretty much as soon as the prices started to fall.

So check your fuel prices folks.

Wow that's a massive overpayment. Depending how much you spend per year I might be able to help. Lot's of hidden charges with Fuel Cards too. If you don't spend that much, I can point you to a supplier anyway.
Thanks Fella


We spend about £60k per year give or take. i have just been in contact with the BE cards, and they seem to fit our needs really well.

Just looked at your profile, I used to know Chris Allison!
