    No Fuel card can guarantee they will always beat the pumps. That company like all fuel cards will give you a weekly price and it is up to you if you want to use the card. They buy huge quantity of fuel and pass on there price. All stations are independently owned and nobody can guarantee to beat them as they change there prices often and can charge what they want for diesel. They are not a scam I would say but they can only at best guarantee to beat other fuel cards in the market. You have nothing to lose in my opinion also!!

    The office address for this crowd seems to be the same as DCI, Fuelwise, fuelplus, Topaz, Fastfuel, Fuel Cards Direct, and possibly more, but I got bored looking.

    Either Galway has a fairly large "Fuel Card District", or they are all the same company under different banners.

    Must say, didn't realize Topaz Card services and DCI were in any way connected, but being run from the same building is a bit of a coincidence.

    Interesting.. as someone who has been very inconvenienced by the recent Topaz card changes and annoyed by how it was sold to us as a "benefit" :rolleyes: when in reality it was because some users were defaulting on their bills, on the surface of it this card seems like what I had.

    Will give them a call today if I get a chance and report back..
