            • @jv: The price range was all petrol chains using Petrol Spy in my area within 10 mins drive.

              • @rokufan: But not 7/11

                  @jv: I don't restrict my fuel purchases to 7-11 only.

                  I just paid 166.9 for U91 at Coles Express, not sure why so many people still trying to use 7-Eleven.

                  You agree.

                    @rokufan:

                    I don't restrict my fuel purchases to 7-11 only.

                    Neither do I, that's what my first comment said… Coles Express has been much cheaper recently.

                    • @jv: 23/6/2024: the cheapest coles express in Melbourne is 181c for Unlead and the station is about 1hr from my house. The cheapest 7-11I locked is 166 for Unlead and it is about 2 mins from my house. If you were me, which one would you choose? lol

    • If only Coles Express had some type of 7 day voucher that offered 25c/L off at any site nationwide

      • Shell Express was cheaper than any 7-Eleven 25c/L voucher to fill up with U91 today…

    • 7-11 is 2 mins from my house for the cheapest price. Best coles express may be half an hour or more from my house. What do you choose?

      • -1

        Move house

    • It is not about the price or the money we could save; it is about beating / tricking the system…

      • There isn't a 'system'.

    Hi everyone! I’ve finally finished an update to Refinery.FYI that I’ve slowly been working on since they introduced the 25¢ cap.

    You can now view all stores by price range on a map. Select a price to set it as the base map price, and the map will filter the stores accordingly:

    • Green: ≤ Base Price + 25¢
    • Yellow: ≤ Base Price + 50¢
    • Red: > Base Price + 50¢

    Select a store to show the maximum discounted price possible underneath the actual price. Green stores won’t show the actual price as it’ll be within 25¢ of the selected price.

    Hope this helps you find the few cheaper stores around, enjoy!

      Awesome stuff…. Thanks

    • Legend. Appreciate all your work.

    • +1

      Looks great, nice work!

      A couple of things: 1. A link to open directions in Apple/Google maps (or maybe copy address or long/lat). 2. The ability to enter a custom price, I've got a lock for 167.5 from last week for example.

      • +2

        Thanks!

        A link to open directions in Apple/Google maps (or maybe copy address or long/lat).

        Good idea, totally missed this use case. Copy Coordinates has been added to the map.

        The ability to enter a custom price, I've got a lock for 167.5 from last week for example.

        This was already on the list for a future update, just need more spare time to work on it.

    • +2

      just curious, have you noticed a drop in page views?

      E.g. me, I won't be visiting 7 Eleven again as I can't get the fuel lock to work.

      • +2

        I know there's at least one user less because I no longer fuel lock, got banned a while back and couldn't be bothered to get around it. Plus other stores nearby have been consistently cheaper.

        Comparing from when they introduced the cap (Feb 6) until now and the same time last year, there's been a drop of 25% in users.

        • +2

          Great that you no longer benefit from the site but are still putting effort in helping others.

    • +1

      Just look at all that red in Syd and Mel, Bne isn't too bad with a couple of green options.
      I'm buying more Ampol and BP than ever before with this new 25c cap.

    • great job. Thank you for updating the website even though you don't use it.
      Just checking for the green/yellow/red system. Does it change depending on the state / petrol grade? That would be really handy if it did but I can't work it out - if not can I request this as a feature for whenever you work on it?
      Thanks again.

      • +3

        Thanks. It’s a fixed price range but changes based on the price and fuel type you select. You should see the key update in the top right of the map. My fault for preferring minimal UI with no explanation.

        The idea is you select the price you’ve locked at, and any green stores means you’ll get your locked price, yellow stores within 25¢ of your price and red stores greater than 25¢.

        • Oh cheers, didn’t click on the little location icon. Was wondering what it does but thanks now I get it!

  • +3

    Wow that took forever.

    But adding 7-Eleven under Magisk -> Settings -> Configure DenyList finally helped to get rid of the dreaded A01 error

    • Does it work for all states?

      • Have no VPN to test with.

  • +10

    I can't do this anymore.

    I gave up.

    I won't be going to the (now) expensive 7 Eleven petrol stations anymore, doesn't make sense to me.

    • +1

      Yes I've given up on the VS method as I think I've tried every combination of the suggested tips but just can't get it to work.

      • +1

        Not worth it anymore with the 25c gap cap

      • VS method? Visual Studio?

        I've tried the Android Studio method. I couldn't run the phone emulator on my 8GB laptop.

  • +6

    I have created an Android Studio virtual device profile which works for fuel lock.

    Download from: you have to message me for the link. Don't want to list it here just in case 7 eleven themselves download it and try to figure why it works (the file is almost 8GB as it is a device image, it's compressed down from 16GB)
    Unzip the file and folder to C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%.android\avd
    Obviously you have to download and install Android Studio

    You will need to log into your own google account to update 7 eleven app automatically or sideload yourself if you don't want to log into your google account.

    Open 7 Eleven app, log into your account.

    Open Device ID Changer, select au.com.fuel7eleven from the dropdown list (if you cannot select it click on any other app from drop downlist then find 7 eleven on the list again and click it). Click Random ID. Goto home screen, click Magisk, click the circular arrow top right, reboot. IMPORTANT You have to repeat this step and change Device ID/reboot every time you want to fuel lock.

    Find the cheapest fuel in your own state (I haven't bothered using VPN), Open GPS setter (click anywhere to skip the update box-it won't update even if you click update) enter the location for the fuel station, I press stop and start button bottom left just to make sure it has locked new location in.

    Go back to 7 Eleven app select your fuel and lock.

    I have tried this on a few computers and they work, but I cannot guarantee it will still work in the future. If you are still getting A01 then try with a new account.

    • Try to clear data on app after changing ID, you should be able to get other states. Also, you don't need to reboot when changing ID.

      • I've never needed to clear data on app after id change, but always needed to reboot for the new id to take effect.

        • Clearing data for me is so i can lock interstate. Never needed to reboot

    • Getting A02 errors, something has changed with play integrity and the app crashes when you tap lock button

    Been trying to lock using android emulator with no luck… I have a VPN on computer itself not an android app, keep getting A01 error.

    Tried disconnecting from VPN between getting price and locking it in. Tried clearing data on app and signing back in, tried Configure Deny 7 eleven app through magisk and still no luck.

    Any tried and true methods working 100% with VPN? Do I need VPN on phone and not just on my computer

  • Is there a website that lets me look at all these up to date 7 11 prices for stores on a map or just a simple list of every store in the state or something? I want to find the cheapest store to me in a reasonable distance so I can maximize the 25c discount all the ones near me are 227.9 vs 165.9 on projectzerothree. All the cheap petrol sites in the OP just list like the top 3 in your state which doesn't help me.

    Not having any luck fuel locking on iOS 16.7.8 on an iPhone X using ifakelocation in the same state - getting A01 error.

    I've tried to create another account and still getting the same error.

    • +3

      Also tested on multiple accounts and on another device running iOS 17.5.1 (iPhone 15 Pro) with GeoPort - A01 error

  • Getting A01 on a genuine lock on iPhone. What the?

  • I just tried Geoport and managed to lock in Perth prices from my location in Melbourne.

    • I tried Geoport with VPN this afternoon and failed to get a lock. The last time I successfully locked using Geoport was ~2 weeks ago. What are the steps you used to get a lock?

      • +1

        Once the price is loaded using Geoport, Stop the location sharing and just lock in price. I did this for two seepage separate accounts and it worked.

        • are you using VPN and what device?

  • Mate locked for me last night, but when I scanned card today, it wouldn't work.

    Lock was showing on my account, they tried pressing the card and re-scanning multiple times…

    Any ideas?

    • -2

      Any ideas?

      Use Coles Express. It's cheaper.

    • +1

      logout and login again, your account is blocked, this would have been triggered when you scanned at the checkout

  • Just tried interstate lock with geoport and turning off fake location prior to hitting lock worked like a charm. This is after multiple failed attempts with iFL. No VPN used, I toggled data to wifi prior to locking though. On iOS 16.2 + Mac

  • +2

    Just managed to do an interstate lock like this:

    iOS 17.5.1
    Connect to geoport to perth
    PureVPN app on phone, connect to perth server
    Open 7/11 and choose fuel type and get price up
    Turn off location on geoport, turn off VPN in pureVPN app
    Lock fuel price

    Tried for quite a while including android studio and this is the only one that worked for me, haven't tried any other VPN services

    • woked for me2. Many thanks!

      • +3

        And I’ve just been banned 😂

        • WTF, did you log in with multiple account?

          • @AXXO: No but I locked it and redeemed it within 4 hours or so, not sure if they track that.

            Hopefully I can create a new account on the same device.

            • @Brick50: They just might…… I will pump up tomorrow then.

              I am on my 5th 7-11 account lol.

  • Nooooo…. getting G09 on sign up now for new account.

    Looks like its time to hand in my helicopter license

    • Device lock - new device needed!

      • not sure its worth it any more… $8 per saving. $100 cheapo device.

        • +1

          If your phone is rooted just use a DevID changer app.

      • Doesn't a device reset generate a new uuid, the"device" id that apps have access too ?

  • Has anyone had an issue where the 'my card' barcode wont load?

    Theres no errors or anything but when i pull up the my card its just an empty white box. Seems to work on an older phone without issues.

    • +2

      Yes that started to happen to me yesterday or day before, and also when I try to lock, the app crashes.
      What device/emulator are you using?

      • Samsung s22 but locked on a different phone. I can add the barcode to my google wallet, but i havent tested to see if it works.

        Frustrating to say the least.

        • I had existing locks on some of the accnts, and they have all worked after this issue started.

      • +1

        Same issue, started couple of days ago with my rooted android, app crashes and a2 errors when registering or tapping Pay and Go section, No fix so far :/

        • Seems to be a common android issue. I can log the same accounts on an iphone and the barcodes show fine, so i dont believe its an account issue.

    • just add it to your wallet and scan the barcode from there. It worked.

  • +2

    Rooted Pixel 8 Pro. Meeting basic and device integrity. App crashing when clicking the lock button.

    • +2

      And if you check My Card, it'll come up blank, just an empty white box.

      • +1

        Yes, I get the crash and the empty white box on the details. I can still lock from my phone's app but not via Android Studio anymore.

    • Managed to lock again. (version 2.23.0)
      1. Change Device ID for au.com.fuel7eleven using Device ID Changer (I was getting G09 errors).
      2. Reboot.
      3. Create new account.
      4. Helicopter.
      5. Scan for fuel.
      6. Disable Helicopter.
      7. Lock in price.
      8. Profit.

      • +1

        Discount didn't apply.
        Although was able to lock again immediately after…

  • Finally got G09'd on a pretty old account almost immediately after making a lock just now. No idea how they finally caught on after going all these years unscathed. Oh well though it's a pity about the linked Velocity number, which I only just added a short while ago.

      Bad attitude.

      We must win.

    • Care to elaborate?

    • No issues at all for me… I just locked in ready for the weekend…

    • Locked an interstate price on Tuesday night without issues.

    • +1

      I locked interstate and the discount didn't apply. Got an email the day after from 7 eleven advising I'd breached the t and cs and that my account has been blocked.

      • Yeah I just tried. It didn't register at the counter and cashier told me to send an email. Just sent my email but then saw your comment.

        I now wait for my account to be blocked lol

      • How long did you wait before utilising it? Less or more than 12 hours?

  • So what now?
    Is the best we can do now cheapest in the same state?

  • Another for the g09 error camp.
    Did iPhone with ifakelocation.
    Locked in and went to fill up and the discount didn't come through. App still worked and could see the lock in price but no dice upon scan. They scanned multiple times as well.
    Beware for those filling big tanks and expecting discount ymmv.

      I used it on my iphone earlier today and had no problems.

      • I might have just gotten unlucky. Another bloke early in the comments at the same thing happen.

        Full disclosure I've been locking in on a family members iPhone and logging into my pixel phone to scan at checkout.

        Note: I locked in an interstate price

        • I did neither of those things.

          I've always locked same state and use 1 account per phone (I use 2 phones)

        • I do the same as you and same thing happened to me last night.

          G09 error today when I tried to login today

    • How do you get around the ifakelocation error message saying”your devices ios version is not supported at this time”?

      • Use GeoPort. Assuming you’re on iOS 18+

      • I have an older iPhone so don't have an issue with iOS versions. You need to stop the auto update on the phone for next time.

        As for solution I think you wait for the image to be uploaded somewhere and add that to your folders so it's compatible, haven't have this problem in a while so I don't remember. Should be earlier in this thread somewhere
