I use mine to buy petrol for my bike all the time. Hi Chris, Whilst each card does have the registration number embossed on it, you can still use it to purchase fuel for any vehicle you like.

I've checked with Topaz and unfortunately you're right. The station in question doesn't purchase its bio-diesel from Topaz and as a result it can't be processed on the card.

This is cheaper and runs fine on my car and do not want to use a higher priced fuel with less lubrication just because it is acceptabe to the card.

The text messages have stopped despite having regularily used the card. About ten lines above on this site is "Free SMS Updates Each card holders receives a free SMS every Friday afternoon indicating what the price will be for the following week. This way you will always know when to buy and avoid any crazy price hikes! If you’d like to view the price for this week online click on the following link http://www.motorcheck.ie/fuelcard/pricing." I think I have bought diesel at 118c this week when I could have got it at 111c locally!! I have had the same problem. The text messages have stopped despite having regularily used the card.

Surely the whole point of the card is to offer a price that is always below the pump price? But that was not my point anyway. I was pointing out that the fuel price offered using the card is generally higher than the pump price from other petrol stations. If you reduced this you would increase your customer base and turnover. Just a suggestion anyway. All the best. 90% ???

Unfortunately reducing the price of the card wasn't an option in our negotiations. Turns out that over 90% of the transactions on the card are actually below the pump price which shows that it's pretty competitive most of the time. Hopefully the 20 Euro credit will make up for it.

I imagine this period of free updates has expired and you may need to renew your SMS alerts. I will send your enquiry directly to our fuelcard administrator and she will address this for you.

I used to receive these weekly but have not received in quite a while even though I use my card every week. What is the reason for this.
