Shell fill up and go

[estoril]

Anyone on here tried it out?

I have tried it 4 times now and 3 times it has failed....

On the occasion it worked, it worked fine but every other time I've tried it the app takes forever to respond (the spinner keeps spinning at the top of the screen) or else there was a "technical issue"

Just wondering if it's me or the app....

Why not just use pay at the pump?

Can you collect the Drivers Club points if you pay at the pump?

OP, I assume you've checked you are actually connected to the internet at the time? It's possible reception is just really crap in the station you're using?

I've checked that I am connected to the internet (3G) at the time, I have only tried two stations, failed twice and worked once at the first and failed at the other, this is when I have actually got it to progress through to the screen where you scan the QR code, sometimes it doesn't even get that far!

Edited to say - I think they may be having issues with the integration, I suspect it's not quite ready for mass adoption yet

To try and get this back on topic....

Has/are any of you guys using the Shell App to "fuel and go"?

I'd like to know if it's working or not for other people.....

I've not heard of this app. What interests me is whether they've removed the silly restrictions on using your mobile phone now that it's in their interest to do so?...

No, the restrictions are still there, if you are thinking of using your mobile in a petrol station, but you scan the QR code from inside the car, it seems to be a little more reliable now than it was when it was first introduced.
