PetrolPrices: UK Fuel Prices 17+

I’ve always found this app useful, but the latest version seems to have added adverts (or at least made them more prominent). The problem is, when searching for fuel prices, as soon as you scroll beyond the first advert in the fuel station list the app crashes. Typically there are just two fuel stations before the advert so unless you’re interested in either of them the app is no longer useable. Two stars to reflect its usefulness prior to the update. Would rate higher when fixed.

Developer responded very quickly and the issue appears to have been resolved by removal of the adverts. The acid test will be what happens if/when the adverts are reintroduced.

Hello.
Thank you for raising this with us and thank you for your patience.
An upgrade to the app is now available for you to install which will solve this issue for you.

Please can you install the update and try using the app as you would do normally and did before to confirm the issue has now been resolved for you.
In the unlikely event it hasn’t resolved the issue please let us know, including the details of your device for example, iPhone 13 and the relevant iOS software installed.

Thank you again for your patience and apologies for any inconvenience.

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.

Hi thank you for your review. We are new owners now and we are reviewing what we do with the leaderboard. Thanks.

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..

Thanks for this, really useful to hear! We're working on the name issue on reviews as we speak
