    When I first kept a record in 2004 on 3 September it was 79.9 !!!!!



    It was 83.9 in January 2009 - it just shows how much it has gone up, especially as it was 141.9 18 months ago.

    I paid 83.9 on 1 Jan 2009 but on 9 Jan paid 82.9 After that the price started to increase, never to see those dizzy lows again!

    The highest I have paid is 138.9

    I give up - I still have not managed to get through to 'customer services' at MD, so good riddance to them.

    There is no post mark on mine, just a big "Delivered by Royal Mail" postage sticker :think:

    Either way, Shell's postal system (either internally or their postal provider) is not exactly efficient - as I said, mine arrived today, but the letter is dated 16/10/13! Thirty three days, with a first class postage sticker on it!

    The original issue from Shell was delivered just as a 4 page folded "pamphlet" that contained a points statement, a bit of advertising, the £20 voucher and several bonus points coupons.

    in monochrome was above the delivery address, to the left of the Delivered by Royal Mail indicium (ignore the "Ecomony" logo bit- that's where the Inspire one is printed)

    Where this example has C1 12345, the real one is C9 10031 which leads on to ...

    ... I've since noticed that BETWEEN the 2 logos is the word ONEPOST (in a side-on vertical orientation) who are YET ANOTHER third party involved in the handling of this mail BEFORE it gets into the hands of the company that actually employs the person that puts it in your letterbox

    C9 10031 somehow indicates it is a ONEPOST DSA (Down Stream Access) usage

    None of that matches what I got lol. None of that stuff is on the envelope and it contained just the voucher and a standard "I have pleasure in enclosing you voucher" letter.

    Maybe they've dumped Inspire for shoddy service (and are instead using Royal Mail first class post, but still taking a month to actually post anything)

    Still yet to receive my vouchers ... despite calling Shell card a couple of times. Suspect it's now a case of 'if a deal's too good to be true...' :mad: Or the vouchers are being stolen somewhere down the line? Maybe Martin can stamp his feet and get something done?

    Finally got mine yesterday after numerous emails to Shell. Not sure if I would bother with any more offers if this is what it takes.

    Still waiting on mine, Shell are unbelievably rubbish. This is without doubt the worst loyalty card scheme I have ever used.

    I have loyalty points in credit (all of 143 !). However, Asda have opened a garage nearby my nearest Shell and selling petrol 4.2p cheaper.

    Update: Just passed them and it has gone up 1p (at Asda) today. Luckily I filled up yesterday!
