    Given that Oil prices are less than what they were when the price was set at 1.50 per litre, does anyone know why were are still paying the same amount now given that the price has fallen from $125 to $99.

    I know it's been more than 6 weeks so the refinaries have done thier job.... is it something to do with Oil futures?

    Then you have Euro versus Dollar and taxes etc....

    The actual price of oil is only a small factor in the price at the pumps. AS was already stated the price of Euro v Dollar is much more significant as is the tax rate.
