- Check that you are using your Esso Card™ in an Esso, Shell or BP branded site. Esso Card™ should be accepted in every Esso, Shell and BP branded forecourt in the UK. Should the cashier be unsure then please refer them to their cashier manual which has clear guidelines on Esso Card™ acceptance.
- Wipe the magnetic strip and attempt the transaction again.
- If that is not successful you should contact 0800 626 672 (option 2) where one of our agents will attempt to resolve the situation and liaise with the cashier on your behalf to ensure you are able to continue with your day. For transactions made before 08:30am or after 5pm, you will need to find an alternative payment method.
If you are using your Esso Card™ at an Esso branded station, they should provide you with a ‘No Means to Pay’ form or a ‘manual voucher’ which you should complete and email to the Esso Card™ Customer Services Team at essocardcentre.uk@wexeuropeservices.com.
Our team will then work with the person who looks after your fleet in order to settle the outstanding payment. Please be aware that an alternative means of payment will be necessary for any Esso Card™ payment declined at Shell and BP branded service stations.
