You really think they garages will lower the price of petrol?!
The goverment sets the tax price and have a massive influence on it, petrol and ciggerates is how they make most of their money..
Just take a look at this http://www.petrolprices.com/price-of-petrol.html
So you can see the retailer does not have much of a margain to reduce at all, about 6p on average so talking to companies will only reduce the price by about a penny at most!
Its the tax you pay for... not the petrol

YES but you as a person have still not invested a penny into this scheme so how are YOU being scammed?
what have you got to lose?

Um nothing appart from, countless spam emails, junk mail, pointless phone calls...
Im not saying this is for deffinate but people pay a lot of money for contact details, they maybe selling our details, all im saying is done be shocked it turns about to be BS, im not saying it will i just find the concept of lowering petrol prices by talking to the retailers hard to belive.

not a scam, as has been said you haven't invested any money. plus negotiating a discount with major petrol suppliers is going to take some time
and with the amount of people listed as members it is possible that a good discount can be gained through giving one supplier a mass customer base. any discount is better than nothing in my opinion
