"Actionline" for drivers requiring immediate roadside assistance using an 0800 telephone number instead of the former "Freefone 474" service.
Actionline is designed for trucks which need replacement tyres at any time of the day or night. Users of the service make a single free telephone call to the Actionline centre at Loughborough and the controller contacts the nearest service vehicle to attend the incident as quickly as possible.

A new electronic payment system for the BP Agency Card is being installed so that it can be "swiped" through a reader which automatically transfers the card number and company name to the voucher.
The system then prompts the cashier to enter the vehicle registration number and, if required, the current mileage.
Details of any lubricant purchase can also be added but the system will reject any other purchases such as confectionery as these cannot be charged to an agency card.
