Got the email but filled up the night before, just my luck
Good extra discount for the month of December for anyone with one of these cards.
Don’t forget to swipe your Nectar card too and check the partner offers on the Nectar app before buying fuel as sometimes you can activate extra bonus points. If you’re refuelling at an Esso that has a Tesco Express attached then you can’t use your Nectar card but you can use your Clubcard instead. (edited)

Is this only applicable if you received the email from them?
Nesslovesabargain
Yes, I spoke to them today and it's account specific. Those eligible will get an email.

I filled up at an Esso a cpl of days ago and the receipt is headed Asda. Cashier explained that many Esso forecourts are Asda owned so it makes you wonder whether they use the same quality fuel as their Asda Superstore forecourts.
Across the road is an Asda petrol station which I deliberately avoided in the first place and paid 4p per litre more in the hope of getting better quality fuel. (Asda Rooley Lane Bradford) (edited)

Is that from this year? Date is wrong - says Wednesday 5th December My fuelpecker card gives 5p for diesel already, so doubt it’s being increased to 10p
Whitey2048
The 31st is a Sunday though, so must be a simple mistake. I got the email too. Its a rise from 4p to 8p discount on standard diesel.

I know nothing about the WEX Esso card. Is there a catch?
is “synergy” fuel their bog standard product (price advertised at forecourt), or some posho expensive premium fuel?
Zikohh
Synergy is the standard. Supreme is the premium..

I never got the email. I'm bit confused. Do I present my Wex Card or BLC card or both to get the double discount?

Just pay with the Wex card and they’ll charge the bank card you linked it with the discounted rate.

This is account specific. I have spoken with them on live chat today and those eligible will receive an email. No joy for me but definite heat for those that have been selected.

With the Esso Fuel Card, do you need to keep it topped up, or will it take payment directly from your bank/credit card?
scnickr

You link a debit/credit card to it and they charge you the discounted rate a couple of days after filling up.

Even with the discounts still not cheaper than Costco Fuel for me.

I'm lucky then, the 3 essos near me are already the cheapest.

This is the WEX card ?
tmb
yes it is the Wex card - but comes via Blue Light if your eligible - ignore other response
Nesslovesabargain
My account is still showing the regular discount so assuming it's invite only. Has anyone got a link to a page saying it's an offer for all BLC WEX card holders?
wheredidmyoldaccountgo
I got the email but when logged into the WEX website it still shows the old rate, so it may be that the double discount applies to everyone but they just haven’t updated the website. Could be worth asking on live chat during opening hours.

For anyone uncertain about a Blue Light Card, it is not just limited to Emergency Services, Former Armed Forces also qualify.
ibiris
Current Armed Forces personnel qualify as well.

disappointed about the select invite - glad i didnt go all out at the pumps - just saw my email receipt with just the regular 3p discount per litre
grahamohara2
When did it become OK for all retailers to start hiding discounts behind loyalty schemes or cards / apps its becoming a joke these days it's almost too difficult to buy anything and expect a good price without fafing about

Conveniently raised their prices local to me💀
brohood
So just confirmed on live chat this double rate is only for those who got the email. Apparently it's a rolling offer and different people get emailed every month. So essentially just for the OP but thanks for raising awareness as I didn't even know this card was available
TheJMan
the receipt I got only showed 3p off, anyone else had this issue?
