GasBuddy

I question how stupid some of the reviewers here are. "Rejecting my info"? 10 cents off then 5 cents? Can people read? These are the same idiots that didn't read their mortgage agreements in the run up to the recession and caused the housing crisis. There's a lot of stupid people. I read the terms, agreed, and have been getting the discount now just fine. I've never had any issues. Their support the one time I used it could be improved absolutely agree there. But the card works, read the fine print before complaining and you won't have problems.

I use the GasBuddy app every day -- updating prices so that other users can benefit. I've used Pay with GasBuddy more than 40 times since last September (2017) without ever being denied and without a problem. In the six months that I've use Pay with GasBuddy, I've saved about $40 -- not enough to set the world on fire, but it comes out to about a free tank & a half every year. I live in PA, but I've also used Pay with GasBuddy in OH, IN, WV, MD, SC, GA, & FL. I've used the card at Sheetz, Sunoco, Shell, Marathon, BP, BFS, Pilot, Love's, Speedway, & RaceTrac. Again--I've never had an issue.

For everyone on here complaining that the prices are always wrong are the problem. If the price is wrong you are supposed to report the correct price. Everyone is running to the cheap stations and getting gas without reporting the gas prices. They will always be wrong with no one reporting the current price or verifying that the price is correct. I always report or verify the prices of various stations near me. Gas Buddy started out with just average drivers reporting prices so everyone could see where the cheapest gas was. Now most gas buddy card users don't report prices they just go to the cheap station to get gas.

I first started using GasBuddy when my dad passed away about 6 years ago. We had to drive to AZ from WA State. We really relied heavily on the app to help us not only find gas stations, but the ones with the best prices. I always use the app, whether local or on road trips. We also relied on it quite heavily 2 & 1/2 years ago when we took a road trip to Boston for my son's wedding. This app has been a real life saver for us. There were times we weren't sure we'd be able to find a gas station because we took a lot of scenic routes so we could do a lot of sight seeing and it was so easy thanks to this app. This app was a real life saver on those trips. I even use it for local prices.

Every driver should bookmark this site. It's useful in two ways: (1) It will locate the cheapest local or en route gas sources, and (2) It will tell you what the gas used in a contemplated trip will cost. I use it primarily for (2), and in the process I also learn the number of miles of my trip.

In order to get accurate results, I need to submit an online form detailing what vehicle I drive and its year, and which grade of gas I buy (and of course my starting and ending points). Or I could enter my gas mileage if I know it.

A minor downside is that as of now GasBuddy will not retain information that I give it, so I theoretically could have to spend a fair amount of time refilling the form every time I want GAsBuddy's help for a new trip. In practice however your form filler or password manager (such as RoboForm) should save your data for you and remove that necessity.

I just read about 20 negative reviews, all of which haven't been my experience GasBuddy! I don't know if I've just gotten lucky or if everyone else is doing something wrong/not being patient etc. Their customer service efficiently helped me when I needed them to. I received the $10 Audible credit and $10 free gas. I've never noticed gas prices being as "off" as some of these reviews are reporting. Sometimes someone will accidentally report a price as diesel when it was clearly a premium price or something. I've been using GasBuddy for about 6 months now, and I won't claim I'm saving a MASSIVE amount of money but extracting a $2-$3 average credit from each time I fill up in gas to put towards something I would have bought anyway via the "shop your way" app is worth it to me, or rather "why not". I haven't had any of the issues these last 20+ negative reviews have reported

I am anonymous user. I dont login, and I dont have personal info on app. If the app were better, maybe I would sign up. First the app prices are closer than the web page prices. Why are they different at all? Prices seem to sort of follow the trend. So if you want to pay what everybody else pays, then this app will do well. But I don't need an app for that. I look at the bill boards and pick the cheapest station. The problem with the app is finding the cheapest price in town. Lots of them on the app are simply fake prices. Plan a trip to stop at the cheapest stops, and you will frequently be burning extra gas because the cheap price at the stop was fake. So for now, I look for Buc Eees for the best prices. Because it's really a good price and no disappointment. I will not sign up with Gas Buddy. I will check it from time to time, but they don't earn my trust. And from other reviews, Gas Buddy has been disappointing people for awhile. Could be a shill to spread fake news that Bidenomics is dropping gas prices. That would not surprise me one bit.

Seems like my account is not working now. I have done everything you asked. Now if you could fix this it would be greatly appreciated. I am a Regional manager for a pharmaceutical company. My company has thousands of GasBuddy accounts. If mine can't get be fixed I am going to have the company discontinue all GasBuddy accounts losing your company hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Silly that you would want this instead of fixing an account which had been with you for years. Simply because one of your employees bullied my nephew who is autistic. I will make sure many people hear about this. They employ immature people like Cady and Nychole who like bullying people.

Absolutely the worst company. Simply find another company is my advice.

Today 8/15/23 I filled up my tank. I activated my discount for the Shell on Northern Parkway around 3:54 pm the discount was to be $.18 per gallon I use 6.80 gals and received .26 savings. Should have received approximately $1.20. This isn’t the first time I was cheated in my savings. Could an adjustment be made that may receive the proper discount. My name is Vondalee Brown-Walker I have my fuel rewards card connected to my gas buddy account as well.

I should have read these reviews before I signed up for GasBuddy. I bought gas for the first time and a pop-up came up to save more with the gas station's additional rewards program. I started the process, but then canceled out of it when I saw that it involved the premium membership subscription for 9.99 a month and just bought the gas. But guess what? They enrolled me anyway and charged me. They insisted that I must have enrolled in it and refused to reimburse me. I argued with them, and it took them days to respond. Finally, I disputed the charge with the bank and put a stop payment against them. Now they're refusing to close the account unless I cancel the dispute and said they're sending me to collections for a whopping 9.99. It cost me $30 bucks for the stop payment, and if they are serious, another 9.99 plus a collection agency charge for a whopping $1.72 savings at the pump. It's a complete scam, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

I ain't no tech-savvy person, but I do know how to save a buck or two when it comes to filling up my car's gas tank. That's why I decided to give GasBuddy a try. I ain't got no fancy smartphone, so I just used the web version. It's been a while since I last used it, so I was excited to see what's new.

But boy, was I in for a surprise. First off, I couldn't find the map icon that used to be next to each station. After some digging, I finally found it in a new location. But then, when I selected a type of gas, it only showed prices for regular. What's up with that?

And don't even get me started on how it forgets that I'm looking for diesel each time I click on a new page. It always defaults to regular. Come on, GasBuddy, can't you save my data?

But the real kicker is when I ask for the lowest local prices. Instead of showing me the cheapest ones first, it shows me some higher prices before the lowest one. That ain't right, GasBuddy.

And let's not forget about the ads. There's a huge load of them that keeps the display moving. As soon as I close one, another one pops up. It's like playing whack-a-mole.

I used to love GasBuddy. It was a lifesaver when it came to finding the cheapest gas prices. But now, it seems like it's more interested in being a host for clickbait. Come on, GasBuddy, get your act together.

I seen them reports on the TV about why gas prices keep going up and I gotta say, I ain't too happy about it. GasBuddy, you keep saying that the price of gas has to go up when the Canadian dollar goes down and when oil prices go up, but then you say the same thing when the dollar goes back up and oil prices go down. What gives? It seems like you're just a mouthpiece for the oil companies, spouting their BS stories about why we gotta pay more at the pump.

And don't even get me started on this whole "seasonal change" thing. You say gas has to go up when we switch from winter to summer blends, but then it just keeps going up when we switch from one additive to another. That don't make no sense to me. And when a refinery on the south east coast shuts down for maintenance, you say gas prices have to go up, even though they don't even supply Canada. And then when a plant on the west coast closes for maintenance, you say the same thing. It's like you're just repeating the same old stories the oil companies have been telling us for years.

It's time for you to start telling the truth, GasBuddy. The real reason gas prices keep going up is because of greed. The oil companies are gouging us Canadians, plain and simple. So stop being their mouthpiece and start telling us the truth. We deserve better than this.

I've been using Gas Buddy for a hot minute now, and I gotta say, it's been pretty solid. But, like, a year or two ago they did a redesign and it's been a bit of a bummer. The website is basically useless now and the app has some issues.

So, like, they're trying to stop people from posting fake prices, which is cool and all, but they made it so that if the price changes by more than 5 cents, it won't actually post. Which, like, sucks because sometimes the price jumps up like 20 or 30 cents overnight (which happens way too often, am I right?). And, like, the app will show that the new price is posted, but then when you check on your computer at home, it's just reverted back to the old price. So, like, people keep reposting the old prices for the points and the system is blocking the good guys from making the right change.

It's a bummer, man. The app and website have been going downhill for a while now and I don't think it's gonna get better anytime soon.

GasBuddy is a website that helps you find the cheapest gas prices in your area. I've been using it for a while now and I have to say, it's pretty useful. You just enter your zip code and it shows you all the gas stations in your area and their prices. It's saved me a lot of money over the years.

However, I have to say that their customer service is pretty terrible. I lost my card back in April and it took me three months and eight days to get a new one. I had to go through nine automated call prompts just to talk to someone. And when I finally did get through, the person on the other end was completely useless. They just read from a script and told me I was wrong about everything. It was so frustrating.

But despite the terrible customer service, I still use GasBuddy because it's just so darn useful. I mean, who doesn't want to save money on gas? And it's not like there are a ton of other options out there. So I'll keep using it, but I definitely won't be recommending it to anyone who values good customer service.

Overall, GasBuddy is a decent website for finding cheap gas prices, but their customer service leaves a lot to be desired. If you're willing to put up with the frustration of dealing with their automated call prompts and useless customer service reps, then it's definitely worth using. But if you value good customer service, then you might want to look elsewhere.

I gotta say, I was pretty disappointed with GasBuddy. I was promised discounts that I never received, like a $10 credit for signing up for Audible. I even reached out to customer service twice about it, but all I got were some vague, automated responses. And to make matters worse, the prices on GasBuddy were often wrong, which ended up costing me more than if I had just gone with the local average.

One thing that really grinds my gears is that there's no easy way to track and compare the pump price with what GasBuddy charges my card. It's like they randomly hit me with a different price every time, and I never know if I'm getting a good deal or not.

But here's the real kicker: when I finally found the hidden link to cancel my account, I got an email back that basically said they were gonna keep charging me anyway. They called it a "monthly membership fee," but it sure felt like a sneaky way to keep taking my money.

Overall, I wouldn't recommend GasBuddy to anyone. The discounts aren't worth the hassle, and the prices are too unpredictable. Save yourself the trouble and just stick with the local gas stations.

This app is not worth your time. I have had a terrible experience with their customer service. It seems like they don't even have one! I tried calling, texting, and emailing them multiple times, but it was all in vain. After four attempts, I finally received their card, but the explanation they gave me was that it had been sent to my former address. What a load of crap! I have been living at my current address for over 35 years, well before GasBuddy even existed.

Their app is a complete joke. It is filled with pop-ups that prove that nothing is free. When I tried to search for gas stations in my Memphis, TN zip code, I was surprised to find gas stations in Kansas City, KS and Oak Park, IL. What a waste of time!

I uninstalled the app from my phone and tried to unsubscribe from their emails, but I couldn't find a link to do that within their emails or on their website. So, I unsubscribed via GMail's link, hoping that it would send GasBuddy's emails straight to Spam. I wish there was an option to send their emails straight to Trash or even better, to Hell.

In conclusion, GasBuddy is a complete waste of time. Don't bother downloading their app or subscribing to their emails. They are not worth it. Gas "Buddy" my [censored]!

GasBuddy used to be a really cool site, ya know? It had all the latest info on gas prices and other stuff about getting around. But then, like, three years ago, some new owners took over and they totally messed it up. They shut down the way members could talk to each other and share news. Before, you could only post articles about gas prices and stuff like that. But now, any old person can post anything they want, even if it's just some dumb political rant or something. The new owners don't care about the people who actually do the work of posting gas prices. All they care about is making money from ads and trying to trick people into giving them their credit card info so they can get a tiny discount on gas. And that's only if you use their payment system, which is a total ripoff.

But, like, I still use GasBuddy to check gas prices in my area. It's still pretty good for that, I guess. But these days, gas prices don't really change that much, so the cheapest stations stay the same. So, I don't really need to use it that often.

Overall, GasBuddy used to be way better than it is now. The new owners ruined it by letting anyone post anything they want and trying to make money off of people. But, it's still okay for checking gas prices if you need to.

Gasbuddy is a website that I've been using for a long time now, and I gotta say, it's been pretty good. I never had any problems with it until one day when I accidentally pumped a little more gas than I intended. When Gasbuddy charged my bank account, it returned the charge because my bank account went negative. After that, I got a message saying that my Gasbuddy card was deactivated due to an issue connecting to my bank account. It told me to contact them if the process takes more than a day to resolve. It's been 6 months now, and I've tried contacting them multiple times about my bank account not being connected, my account still being charged for the premium membership when I can't use my card, and just wanting to cancel my membership. But I haven't gotten any response from them. I keep getting charged every month, and I don't know what to do at this point because I've done everything I can.

But let me tell you about the good stuff. Gasbuddy has some pretty sweet deals, like the "gasback reward" where you get a certain amount of cents back per gallon. All you gotta do is take a picture of your receipts, and the gasback applies towards your membership fee. It's pretty cool, and it's saved me some money.

Overall, Gasbuddy is a pretty good website, but their customer service needs some work. I hope they can fix their issues soon because I really like using their website.

So, I recently tried out GasBuddy and I have to say, I'm not too impressed. I received an alert on Black Friday 2019 offering a $10 credit for using their Pay with GasBuddy service for the first time. I was excited to give it a try, so I provided my checking account and routing numbers to initiate the process. I received the card in the mail on December 6th, and the very next day, I received another alert offering a $5 credit if I used the card by December 9th.

I decided to fill up my tank on December 9th, and while the full amount was taken from my checking account, I never received either of the credits promised to me. I reached out to GasBuddy multiple times via email, but all I received were automated responses saying that someone would get back to me. Unfortunately, no one ever did. To make matters worse, GasBuddy never responded to my complaint to the Better Business Bureau, which leads me to believe that they are cheating their customers out of their hard-earned money.

Overall, I would recommend using a credit card that pays points instead of GasBuddy's Pay with GasBuddy service. There are plenty of other apps out there that allow you to see gas prices as you travel, so there's really no need to use GasBuddy. Save yourself the hassle and go with a more reliable option.

I was on your App (GasBuddy) searching for low gas prices. I found a Shell Gas station (See Address on attached receipt) with a listed price of $3.60 a gallon. However at the gas station the price was listed at $3.68 a gallon. I followed Gas Buddy App instructions by activating your offer, entered my phone number and logged on into my account as instructed by the App and the account was activated. I pumped the gas after I entered my credit card into the pump slot. The app asked me to upload the receipt, guess what, the upload button was not available on the app settings. Meaning I didn't get the discount, went inside the gas station and explained to the clerk what had happened. He told me to get in touch with you.

Is this a bait and switch offer or what? I will never use that Gas Buddy stupid app again.

I have been charged over $60 in 2 months. How is this saving money?

I started membership on November 8, 2022, it took $10 out I was fine with that because I knew that was the monthly fee. However I was never told how to use the card, nor what to do etc. December 8, 2022, it took out another monthly fee of $10, then right after I was charged again under UFC fee -gas buddy, for $30. After this I canceled my account/ membership. And figured that was it. Today December 20, 2022. I was charged $15 again. So why am I being charged when I havnt used this product yet. I understand $20 was the monthly fees but that doesn’t account for the rest being taken out.

GasBuddy has charged me on several occasions with a $5 fee, but yet has failed to provide me with an information of why this was charged. I also have never been shown a "fee schedule" nor have I ever agreed nor signed a document that I have acknowledged and/or udnerstood such. I have never authorized GasBuddy to charge me $5 on any of these occations.

How is it that GDAE does not even get the correct prices by where he lives, yet he is allowed to post over 200 prices in less than 24 hours all over the city. Let's see receipts from gas purchases. Doing over 200 prices in less than 24 hours would require getting gas unless he was on a bicycle. He also doesn't post a correct price unless someone else posts it first. This latest incident happened from 11pm Nov 25th until Nov 26, 2022. Today, the 27th he is still posting like a madman.

Gasbuddy could fix a lot of the incorrect prices that are posted. All they would have to do is require that each person who posted a price would have to use the app with location on, which means they have to be within half a mile to earn points. I'm about 99.9% sure that most of the people posting prices are doing it for points. They post online which has no requirement to show you are near a station.

Today is Oct 7,2022. Orange CA 928667

I've used Gas Buddy for several years now with great reporting on current gas prices at all gas stations. Now I find that when I go to the lowest price stations with a 4 hour window they are not correct in any way and I have to do my own searching which is very frustating. I don't know who is reporting the false low prices and what you are giving for this information but it has to stop! It's making your Company look bad!

At 5am gas buddy said diesel was $5.69 a gallon at the Mobile at 10051 Folsom Blvd Sacramento and when I got to the location and it was $6.09 so I updated the price on gas buddy and at around 9am someone submitted the price of $5.69 I just find that hard to believe the the price would raise 40 cents for two hours and then drop 40 cents prove me wrong

I have used the app for years but more and more I see FALSE pricing posted by users. It's obvious that either people are being paid to post these or employees of the fuel locations are posting (aka phishing !) to get you to drive to their location only too find out the prices are false. If you look at the user who posted and you can see the same name posting several prices for different fuel or locations, then it's more than likely false. GasBuddy needs to guard this activity as it's only hurting their app integrity! Maybe only allow a user to post once every 24 hours or something like that. Not sure but it's ridiculous! Please fix this!

I am writing to give a heads up to an unannounced policy change by Walmart at their Sam's Club gas stations. I bought gas a couple of days ago at a Sam's Club and happened to glance at the pump price display. Usually it will drop 5 cts gal when you insert your SC card. It did not. The price stayed the same as on the marquee and as originally before I inserted the card. So I called SC customer service when I got home and asked the rep about this. She began sounding like Porky Pig and Mel Tillis having a conversation. I was put on ignore for a while. Since I wouldn't hang up, she finally came back on. I was informed that because of the "instability" in gas prices, SC was suspending the 5 cent discount for cardholders. No emails, texts, or any notice to their customers in any way. Don't know if there has been any official news reports or notices to Gas Buddy or the other monitoring services. Typical 'oh by the way' situation by the altruistic Walton family.
