It's now December and Pipeline has been going for just over a month, so it's time for an update.
Firstly, thank you all for signing up and pledging your support to the Pipeline cause. We have had some fantastic supportive emails - which has made all the hard work worthwhile.
We have also had great support from the media, particularly from the car forums, Times Online money saving expert. (Thanks Martin - and keep up the great work.) Do the website if you haven't visited in the last few days. You might also want to read our official Privacy Policy November.

Membership has been growing at an astonishing 10,000 members per week so we are well on our way to launching the Pipeline Card in the Spring of 2006. However, we do need a lot of registrations to make this work on a national level so please give some thought to ways of telling other drivers about Pipeline.
Some of you have posted links on Web Forums and Bulletin Boards - about 1200 of them actually - some have sent emails to their work colleagues, some have added the site address to their email signature, others have posted messages on Club Noticeboards and newsletters, or pbutted on details to journalists that they know. It all helps.
Please don't spam your address book, don't set up chain emails and, above all, don't register anyone on the site without their knowledge and permission. But if you know other drivers who would like to save money on petrol - friends, family, colleagues - do tell them about the website and give them the opportunity of joining Pipeline. Use this link easier if you like.

If all of you told just two people about Pipeline this week, and they signed up, that would triple our size. It's up to all of us to make this work and, judging by the response so far, it has every chance of success.

Please continue to write in with your queries, suggestions, and offers of help. There are only two of us to answer you - and both of us have other jobs - so bear with us if it takes a little while for us to respond. We read every email and have already added much more material to our FAQ as a direct result of your feedback.
If you wish to stop receiving emails from Pipeline, you can cancel your membership at any time by sending an email to
Best wishes
