Well despite telling Pav 50 times when he’s saying no I’ll hang on for fuel, that he’s NOT going to find a shell station in the most remote part of the route 500 lol where fuel stations are few and far between full stop!

@sevenfourate it seems that your theory of new fuel may be correct. Either that or the fuel I got from there previously was bottom of the barrel...it runs spot on with VP now and I'm keen to keep to either that or Momentum as a rule. Plus BP Ultimate is a rip off where I am....

Good to hear ! How many miles in are you ?

While you might not be as dedicated to it as me - at least you have a choice now...

About 75 miles over today and yesterday, not much I know but it feels good and isn't at all like it was before....

Definitely still flying the Tesco Momentum flag for sure as it's easy to get to from work but with a few Shell garages around me on some of my 'regular' routes I may start popping in more often. Might bung a Redex through it too, keep meaning to grab a bottle when I fill up..

Please tell me I’m not the only one with a Shell app?!

Yep, I have the app too Ben :smile:

So who else has the Pay at the Pump option through the app - or Fill and Go, whichever it is they call it?? You scan the barcode QR thing at the pump and they take payment from your PayPal account. Avoids you going in the shop. We have it in Leeds, but last time I mentioned it to @Chris he'd not heard of it....

TBH I've only used it a few times, because one of those times the app must have crashed during the process and I drove off thinking it was all fine - once you've scanned the QR code it tells you to leave your phone in the car, fill up and then F off. Which I did.

Then when I got home I realised there'd been a glitch and panicked for a few days thinking I'd done a drive-away! Until it finally appeared on my PayPal account, and I vowed to use cash in the future :smile:
