            • @rickb: Ahhh makes sense!

              • @PhillipC: I just locked in a U91 price from WA without using a VPN. My son uses my laptop and ifakelocation with no VPN to lock in WA prices.

                • @rickb: Interesting, I know some others have had A01 using ifakelocation, I have a similar system and it's not working. Might just spend a few bucks and get Surfshark

  • +3

    Can confirm A01 error goes away with NordVPN set to Perth. PureVPN was PureTRASH and didn't work. Nor did hotspotting

    $1.95 for 98 plus additional 6% off with GC

    $1.84 inc GC

    • Nor did hotspotting

      Hotspot works every time for me.

      • -1

        Not counting for some chicken that can only venture within their own state only, and keep whinging about their former dictator.

    • What GC are they?

    • where did u get discounted 7 eleven gc with 6 percent ? and nordvpn doesn't have as good as cashback currently. surfshark trial not working to perth

  • +3

    The app is total shit now!

    Errors even in own state, had to switch to hotspot 4g/5g to another phone to get it to lock in same state

    • +1

      That’s the only way I can get it working too. The other phone can be on Wi-Fi though and it still fixes the error.

  • The My 7-Eleven app will be put into maintenance mode for an update between:

    12:00am - 12:15am 19 March AEDT

    and

    12:00am - 4:00am 21 March AEDT

    During this time you won't be able to use the My 7-Eleven app or its features, but everything will be just the way you left it when it's back online.

      • And they all seem to say the 26th of September in the preview…

          • @HopSkipJumpFallSplat: They screwed up they preview line and it says “App outage between 10:30pm - 11:59pm, 26 September AEST View me online My 7-Eleven” but when you open it the dates are in March.

      • -1

        Must be really important, look how many times they told me about it.

        Once for each account.

    • Let's see how many helicopters get grounded after that update. Being offline that long doesn't really indicate 'small update'

      • They do plenty of updates where they have an outage and updates mention stuff about enhancing security but hasn’t stopped the choppers at all so far.

  • -1

    Any way to get this working with Android? I can successfully change location using iAnyGo then use PIA VPN to change my location but still 7/11 app not buying it. Receive error message "We've detected your location isn't true. To continue, please correct your location".

    • +1

      It literally says in the original post

  • This morning i was no longer able to log in with my "." 7-11 account (ie adding a dot in my burner gmail address) - i was doing some chopper maintenance of my own. I also dont receive emails to reset my password.

  • All my 7eleven accounts have now been blocked after the update. They must have included a software that detects location spoofying…
    Anyone had the same issue?

    • Same - locked in with my burner accounts at 9am got an email at 2pm saying my accounts have been blocked.
      Have other accounts that cant seem to lock either.
      Using Android studios, anybody have this issue and found a workaround?

      • g09?

      • same, g09, blocked, email all sent at 2pm 19/3/2024

    • +1

      They must have included a software that detects location spoofying…

      I wonder if it's worth it to continue doing these price locks. At this rate it might be better just to find which local servo has the cheapest price and go there.

      I recently went to a non 7 11 servo the other day because I couldn't lock from WA.

  • Yep, but i can sign into my other non-blocked accounts and fuel lock locally just not interstate (WA to be specific) - A01 error.

    • So if we lock within our own state, it works fine?

      • +1

        no spoofed location works literally my nearest 7/11s

      • own state seems to be working ok yes

    • +2

      same issue locking WA
      works fine in locking same state (VIC)

      given the current limit of 25c, and all my closest 7-11 stations are at 231c
      atm seems doesnt matter locking in WA (172.9) or VIC (181.9)…

      • Have you tried using a VPN?

        • +1

          I locked WA using vpn but accounts got blocked

  • My Android Studio still works… touch wood.

    • Hey mate, can you please advise how this method works ?

  • Anyone fuel two cars before using the same transaction/lock i.e. park them side by side at the bowser?

    • +9

      I have. I did it numerous times via different gas pumps. All u need to do is go up to counter and tell the cashier that u would like to pay for pump # and pump # together. Then scan your barcode to redeem the pricelock. Max 150ltr applies iirc and make sure you are both refuelling the same fuel.

  • Reporting my findings trying to create a new account today.
    Always getting Error G09 after clicking the register link in the email, setting password, entering first name, last name, and date of birth.
    That is to say at the point where the new user should be taken into the app for the first time, the account gets locked.

    I've tried a few things - all using latest version of 7-Eleven app:
    + Android Studio starting with a cleanskin Pixel image, setting the Device ID for 7-Eleven app with and without VPN running in the image. NBN for Internet.
    + Using known-good rooted phone with newly set Device ID and all new email address. VPN running. Optus 4G Wi-Fi for internet.
    + Different email domains in case my own one was blocked.

    Doesn't matter if the location is set to WA, QLD or NSW

    I could make a new account on an old Android handset. No root or location setting software.
    Using those newly created account details I could log into to 7-Eleven app on the Android Studio emulated Pixel.
    But not lock, A01 error - which has been discussed at length here.

    Anyone else getting similar?

    • +3

      I had issues setting up a new physical Android phone with an immediate G09 as well.
      I finally got it working by starting the account setup on it it not rooted, then rooting it after the 7-eleven app was done.

    • Yes

      • -3

        can you list the process how it works I am having trouble since the app update

        • You cant lock WA price because you will get banned. I use ianygo app. Its pretty simple and straight forward.

          • @lunartemis: After the update 2 days ago you can only lock in your state and not interstate I am looking for a process that can help me lock interstate
            I any go is not working

            • @Slim01: I just use VPN set to capital city of cheapest state and it has worked fine every time so far.. including WA.

      This error isn’t due to the pin. This error is because you probably don’t have iTunes installed and your machine isn’t listening on port 27015

      The error on the last line: failed to connect to usb

      Installed iTunes, make sure Apple Mobile Device Service is running. It’ll work

    If you are unable to lock fuel using spoofed location and VPN (Surfshark) then turn on the option 'Rotating IP' in the Surfshark app after that try to lock. It works fine for me.

    • +1

      Can confirm changing to rotating IP in Surfshark VPN allows me to lock in WA from Vic. Happy days. 😊

  • Anyone getting error A01 errors locking in the same state? Never had this problem before

    • Anyone getting error A01 errors locking in the same state?

      Yes, all the time.

    • +2

      I am getting A01 error too from past one week after using 3uTools for chopper. Not sure what is the way around this issue.

  • Anyone getting a reCAPTCHA error when trying to sign a known working account into an android studio chopper?

  • Brand new account, tried both GeoPort AND iAnyGo on two iPhones (iPhone X ios 16 & iPhone 15 ios 17) and still the A01 error! I also tried the VPN approach too. Very tiring. In my own state

    Could they have blacklisted my device? or does privacy/security prevent them from being able to identify a device?

    Am I missing something obvious?

    • -1

      Have you tried using hotspot? Works everytime on my iphone.

    • +1

      Blacklisted would be G09 error.

    • +2

      Did you follow these steps when using GeoPort?
      - open GeoPort
      - select cheapest location and simulate location
      - open 7-11 app and find the fuel type you're after - this should display the cheapest price BUT DONT LOCK IN
      - In GeoPort: stop location
      - Go back to your 7-11 app and now lock in the price

      • Thanks- this worked!!

        FYI, clicking "Stop Location" in GeoPort didn't actually change my location (ie maps still showed the spoof location), but 7-11 no longer fixed the A01 error. Also clicking "Stimulate location" needs to clicked twice

        Can we pin this at the top to help other users??

  • +5

    just found that the ElevenMe app has a new version in appstore
    now it is able to show all the station price using current phone location (eg. https://ibb.co/ykPWN8V )
    maybe a handy way to find the cheapest station given the 25c /L saving limit

    • +3

      It took quite awhile to load, PetrolSpy is quicker for me (you can filter it to show 7-Eleven only). But it's nice to have on the ElevenMe app too I guess which I keep for push notifications.

    Cashrewards currently has 98% cashback on NordVPN. Bought the 2 yr basic plan for US$83.43 tonight (selected Christmas Island to avoid GST) and purchase was tracked within an hour. Was able to lock in WA U98 price from NSW with no issues.

  • Is anyone paying for fuel with discounted 711 giftcards?
    Any issues with split payments?

    • Always use 711 GC's, twice I couldn't split pay, both times attendant didn't know how to do it.

    • been using the 711 GC for the last 5 times fueling
      no issues on split payments

    • Yes and no issues but I recall reading somewhere u can only split once (ie u get 2 goes to pay only). Never tried more than 2 so don't know if thats true

      • +1

        my last transaction has split into 3 (to used up 2 giftcards remaining balance), so I believe the system should support it

      • I've done 3 splits.

  • +2

    Seems like an outage atm, fuel lock wasn't recognised at the pump but can log into account fine

    • Yep, definitely an issue, can't load any offers or rewards. I'm thinking it is cos of this Krispy Kreme deal lol

      • +2

        Had two Locks one on My phone another on my wife's got fuel and they wouldn't let me scan bar code for discount said that there's a national outage
        So missed out on 8c /l discount for only 15l so didn't really bother me too much.
        Will probably not bother with 711 now as if they renege on legitimate discounts be better off using the NSW fuel app and going to the next station that has a cheaper normal price

    • ditto, unable to lock in and offers etc are not loading up.

      • Same here, was also not visible on my app. However, now visible. Thought they had deleted it. Luckily I was at the cheapest 7/11 in Vic

      • I missed 15c per L
        Bought 62L

  • These guys are just cowboys, they have no idea how to support systems

    • What do you mean?

  • I'm going to do this

    16.24 In rare cases, 7-Eleven or its systems may not be able to redeem your activated Fuel Lock at the time you wish to make your fuel purchase (for example, the equipment necessary for scanning your My Card may not be available or operational). If this happens, and you have already dispensed the fuel, you must purchase the fuel at the standard pump price and finalise payment at that price. We will provide you with a credit to the value of the difference (rounded up to the nearest dollar), if you follow the following steps:

    (1) please obtain and retain a store transaction receipt for the proof of purchase;

    (2) in the settings menu of the App you can find contact details for the 7-Eleven Customer Service; and

    (3) email your receipt to 7-Eleven Customer Service.

    • I have done this before, I was sent a 7-Eleven gift card in the mail.

    • +2

      I know someone who did this and instead of sending the gift card, 7 eleven banned their account so YMMV

      • Thanks, it did cross my mind but it also crossed my mind that they know me a few times

    • +2

      Nope not doing that, they will ban you most likely

    • I thought about it too. But honestly, a single miss is not the end of the world. I'd rather the recurring discount and call it a one-off.

      I can only get the iPhone 8 using 3uTools to get home state : (

      • +1

        I’ve been locking in once a week successfully for the last few months.

        iPhone iOS 16, iFakeLocation (running on Windowsv, NordVPN (running on iOS) set to Perth (and confirmed with iplocation.io)

        • +1

          This did it!

          I was running the VPN on the router level and for some reason nothing. Ran it on the Phone level and it's working like a charm. I don't know why, I have a "plug and pray" knowledge of networking.

          iOS 15.6, 3uTools and PrivateInternetAccess (running on iOS) set to state for lock.

          Guesstimate gonna have to run the VPN on the android device but tbh Pixel 2 is a soundmachine and more steps to use than the iDevice.

          • +5

            @Shroomlet: This is because 7-11 are comparing your iDevice ip against the location you are locking in

            I would also love you guys to checkout https://geoport.me

            It supports location sim on iOS17 devices, windows and Mac OS.

            In a few days version 2.0 will be out and I can now do location sim over WiFi (you don’t need to have your iOS device tethered with a usb cable any more)

            • @dave31: fair. the iDevice has no SIM so i thought it wouldn't matter :)

            • @dave31: Tried this on my x86 mac. Getting some python lib error

            • @dave31: My iPhone 12 lightning port is so finicky nowadays, to be able to do a location sim over wifi is a fantastic feature, I will definitely convert over to your geoport.

      • +1

        Use a VPN to change state on the iphone before locking

  • Hey folks,
    I tried to use the ifakelocation, i got this error: Your device's iOS version is not supported at this time.
    IOS:17.3.1

    Any fix for this?
    Thanks

      Update to iOS 18 and it works fine.
