Scania has introduced a fuel card in partnership with industry experts The Fuelcard People, who will administer the service. The Scania Fuel Card is available to all UK transport operators from single-vehicle owner-drivers upwards, enabling companies of all sizes to enjoy lower fuel prices nationwide. There is no minimum expenditure and zero-liability insurance against loss and theft is available. Scania chose The Fuelcard People as its partner for its expertise, experience and approach. In particular, it cited the levels of personal service offered to every user and the unbeatable breadth of its product range, covering every major oil brand in the UK.
Steve Clarke, general manager of The Fuelcard People, said: “Users of the Scania Fuel Card benefit from a fixed weekly price which applies whether refuelling is in the heart of a city, down a quiet country lane, at a supermarket or on the motorway. Users can expect prices typically well below national average prices, saving as much as 10p per litre for motorway refuelling. Although the service is designed with owner-drivers and smaller fleets in mind, larger operators are equally welcome to take advantage of the benefits.”
As well as immediate cost savings, Scania Fuel Card customers benefit from significant reductions to their administration workload. Every refuelling transaction, for every vehicle, is covered within a single weekly VAT-compliant invoice. Cashflow is also eased, with payment being by automatic direct debit. The interval between filling the tank and paying for the fuel can mean up to a fortnight of credit, with no interest charges. Every customer is offered a choice of fuel networks, so that each has the best fuel card package to suit their individual needs. One card is issued for each vehicle operated, with no upper limit, and there are no card charges for the first year. Scania Fuel Card users do not have to deal with anonymous call centre operators, as each is assigned a dedicated, named account manager.
Customers have 24/7 secure online access to their accounts, including details of refuelling which has yet to be invoiced. Bespoke reports are available upon demand and a range of customer-chosen usage parameters and alarms can be specified. Firms can find out more about the benefits and apply their cards at www.scaniafuelcard.co.uk or by calling 0844 8970 6937.
The Fuelcard People deals with the refuelling concerns of commercial road users every day. It helps them to find the best combination of service, savings and security through a range which includes commercial rate fuel cards covering BP, Co-Op, Emo, Esso, Gulf, Shell, Texaco, Q8, Jet, Gulf, Spot, Murco, Morrisons, Pace, Tesco and Moto filling stations, as well as on the Diesel Direct (Keyfuels), MyFuel and UK Fuels networks.
