Just a heads up to everyone. ASDA recently wrote me to advise there 2p per litre off petrol forcourt prices will end with effect 1st march when the discount will lower to only 1p per litre. This, they say reflects the recent fall in oil prices..lol..given they (and others) are still charging more per litre now at less than $40 a barrel than they were charging around 1 year ago when the barrel price was higher..its a bit of a joke..but at least I had a few discounts while it lasted..

Trouble is pounds sterling has fallen against the dollar so the price of oil to us has not gone down by anywhere near as much for us as it has for the Americans.

Oh yeah, it has just a touch.
It's got a long way to go to make up the circa 40% loss is made in the last year or so

All the advice about driving styles is very like the principles of advanced motoring, as any member of the Institute of Advanced Motoring will confirm.

I've recently signed up with a company called Infuel who have provided me with a FastFuel card which I can use to buy fuel from Texaco filling stations. Fuel prices change each week but have been 7p to 5p per litre cheaper than pump prices. Payment is weekly by direct debit. I run a small taxi business (3 cars) and with a weekly fuel useage of around 250 litres the savings are much better than when I was using the Shell/Citibank card. So far no problems but I am curious as to how this company can offer such a good discount.

Sounds good. I have just looked at their service station finder and there is none near where I live. Is it all Texaco stations, as there are several near me and these are not included on their listing?

I have just looked at their site and cannot find a list of service stations.

Do they offer this service to private individuals, or just companies ?

I have just checked with the company and they will only consider individuals who use 500 ltrs per month.
