Update e-mail sent to me as of the 16/03/06
Top Gear's Richard Hammond has joined the list of Pipeline supporters by
signing up and giving us a full page write-up in his Mirror column (now
listed on the media page) Thanks Richard!
The emails are still coming in thick and fast, asking if we can use
Pipeline's purchasing power to get better deals on other products like
heating oil, gas or even car insurance. For those who wrote in about oil, we
are making progress and will write to you individually in a few days. It's
looking good!
Gas is a deserving case, with all the recent price rises, but very tricky -
and we don't really want to spend too much time on things that have nothing
to do with petrol or motoring. Still, have a look at this new page on our
website (
http://www.pipelinecard.org/gande.html) and see what you think.
We have also had some thoughts about ways of saving money on car insurance
and breakdown insurance. But don't expect a page full of ads and special
offers. That's not what we do. Check out
http://www.pipelinecard.org/insurance.html and
http://www.pipelinecard.org/breakdown.html and you will see what I mean.
The other big question that many of you are asking is "how are the
negotiations with our retail partner going and when am I going to get my
card?" The short answer is, it's all moving ahead, but not as quickly as we
would like. Wheels move slowly in large organisations and our membership has
clearly grown faster than they were expecting. We are keeping the pressure
on and we are still hoping to have some good news for you in May or June.
