PetrolPrices: UK Fuel Prices

Was a good app before all the chumps started using it…. there’s nothing to highlight or at least make all the chumps using it, at least double check they are updating the right price. Users (and PP) are entering super fuel prices with regular fuel prices making the app useless. PUT A CONFIRMATION BOX UP TO INSTRUCT USERS TO CHECK THE PRICE THEY ARE UPDATING IS THE RIGHT ONE! The app is pointless if users are filling it with duff info… which devalues the product and it’s whole point… and… where on earth does PP get its wildly inaccurate and out of date prices from…., even PP duplicates regular fuel prices copying them into super fuel prices, DON’T! LEAVE AT ZERO IF YOU DONT KNOW! Get it sorted out PP! A Bug also says sometimes I’m not using right format to update price when I am xxx.x, so when I see a wrong or old price I can’t even update it… not exactly sure why I still use this app…

The app’s good, been using for a while now. Particularly with the current volatility of fuel prices, it’s really useful to keep up to date with what to expect day to day. Comes into its own when you’re outside your normal area and don’t know the local prices. Couple of small glitches I’ve noticed. Don’t know what the points and leaderboard are for (can’t see a description in the app nor if there’s some sort of prize?) but I have noticed occasionally that fuel prices I’ve input have shortly afterwards been overwritten with same prices, presumably to bag some points! Not a big deal, but does smack a bit of cheating! 😂. The other glitch is that sometimes some obviously way-out prices appear which can only be typo’s(?), but the app doesn’t let you correct them. I can only assume that there is some sort of max limit to how much a price can shift written in to the app, but if there is then I don’t understand how the wildly incorrect price can be entered in the first place. Anyway, my advice is that if the price looks too good to be true, then it probably is! Try ringing the service station first before being tempted to drive a few miles to be disappointed when you get there.

Have been using this app for a while now and it’s really handy. I’m sure I’ve saved myself a fortune in that time... the difference in price in one area is incredible and this app tells you instantly which is the cheapest. I love what they’re doing with their latest update although the information doesn’t seem as good, a few petrol stations prices that were previously known on the old app now are blank which is a bit disappointing, although I’m sticking with it because I’m sure future update will improve it! If you leave a review for a petrol station please be aware that it automatically uses the name in the first part of your email address which can be your full name if your not careful, you can only change your user name on the website and not the app so please be aware if you are planning on reviewing and don’t want your name visible to the world..
