PCH. Why not open up a separate paypal account linked to your business account or card? The app on my phone is linked to one account and I opened a fresh PayPal account for my wife linked to another account. I have another paypal account linked to my business bank account but I only use that for online purchases. Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto

Just topped up again. Sadly, I timed it. From stopping at the pump, opening the app and waiting for authorisation, topping up with 27.55 litres and pulling away from the pump it took me 2:04. That's quicker than an F1 splash and dash when it was allowed. Mind you, I doubt if they just took on 27.55 litres of V-Power Nitro+ Diesel! Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto

I'll certainly be trying it out next time Although, since filling up last Friday and having covered 50 miles since then going to and from work, the fuel gauge needle hasn't budged. The computer claimed 570 miles until empty after the fill up but I reset the trip to see what it actually manages. Off to Warwick and Stratford Upon Avon on Friday so there should be some extra MPG to be had with a long settled cruise down the motorway.

Well I tried the app yesterday and it failed miserably It acknowledged the symbol at the pump and said authorising my account but then said there was a technical issue so pay at the till. I tried it again to no avail. I hasten to add that I was in a strong 4G signal area so no problem on that front.

Update: I emailed Shell and they have acknowledged the problem at that garage and informed senior management for that area so it can be fixed. They apologised and credited 300 points to my drivers club card. Fair play to them LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

I work for the division of the company [who now] own the IPR for this app. We originally wrote and trialed it under the name of MiFuel way back in 2012 with the first pilot site in Borden. All of the major oil companies are now developing their own versions of the app. |

Recently reloaded the app on my new phone. Now, you don't need PayPal you can assign a debit card to it. Worked okay yesterday. Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto

Great, first we had the shop part selling everything instead of the basic essentials meaning people go in to do their weekly shop - hence a queue to the door to pay for your fuel!!! Now we have a queue at the pumps waiting for the old dear with an antiquated Nokia phone trying to download the app.
