I suspect there is an issue with the fuel price Db as I have updated 1 sainsburys garage today 3 times and the price has not updated, despite Waze assuring me I have got 8 points.
Tried the same at a morrisons (where there are 2 duplicates) and despite updating 3 times all 3 of them there were no changes.
Isnât that just how the price update process works though? Iâve never seen any of my price updates shown there and then, but if I revisit the station later (anything from a few hours to a few days, doesnât matter so long as no-one else has updated it in the meantime) then itâs my name shown against the prices that get displayed that time.
They usually show as update by me if I heck them again. Not this time.
Iâll go check them again tomorrow (by which time any issue will have been resolved!)âŚ
Iâve updated one petrol station near me four times in the past five days. Every time Iâve had the âsuccessful update - 8 pointsâ message. The price showing is still the one I input six days ago, before this trouble started.
On another petrol station less than a quarter of a mile away, I consistently get the âbaby wazer - *** offâ message.
So it looks like the petrol station update process is well and truly messed up.
Well 3 (Three) seem to be having data issues atm. That is - no data/3G whatsoever! Iâll test later if I can.
But going by the above Iâll not hold out any hope.
Not sure it is 100% at the moâŚ
Updated a garage I did yesterday and when the price info showed on screen, apparently I had updated it today (I hadnât - it was yesterday I updated it!) so it is still a little flakyâŚ!
Did you check within 24 hours of the last update? Iâve seen this behaviour countless times at various stations I update regularly, and so Iâve just assumed that when the client checks how long ago the last update was, it doesnât calculate an accurate realtime result for the last update offset from the current time, but instead just does a simple (update was rounddown(elapsed time div elapsedticksperday) days ago) type calculationâŚ
Ok, so it appears that the âdayâ is a rolling 24 hours.
Yesterday I tried to update a service station price on the M1 (N) as the LPG price was 7.9p (damn cheap - get round there pronto!) but each time I attempted this I got an invalid price and nothing was updated.
No prob, I reported the issue. Link is Here but unfortunately some oik closed the report without even bothering to make any changes or apply any fix! I can see how this crops up.
So, is the invalid price a known issue? Any actual fix or report to support?
As far as I recall, there is a âsanity checkâ on the price - such that prices outside a range will be considered invalid. I would imagine that, for example unleaded prices have to be in a range something like 100p-180p.
Although I donât pay much attention to LPG prices, 7.9p/l sounds unlikely enough to me that it is probably outside the range of allowable LPG prices.
Yeah during the addition of adding fuels and brands they needed sane price ranges. Itâs here on the forum somewhere but itâs me that gave Shirli the prices.
Btw the closing of reports without doing anything really winds me up⌠can you tell?
Iâve noticed that the âdo you want to update fuel prices?â pop-up no longer appears when Iâm stopped at the traffic lights outside my local petrol station since the Waze 3.7 client update. I also havenât seen it when stopped at the station itself. Itâs clearly not just affecting me because whenever I do get around to updating the price manually I see that the last update was by me several weeks ago. Back when this pop-up was appearing the fuel prices at this station were being updated daily by a variety of different users.
Anyone know what is going on here? Itâs a shame that this feature that was almost starting to become useful has fallen into disrepair again.
