    Is there currently a functioning website anywhere with real-time fuel prices in Ireland? There used to be, but I can't seem to find one now.

    What is that new price ?

    My DCI card just takes 4c off the pump price.

    So, ignoring general price trends, are we saying that there is now no way, other than chance observation, of comparing prices as between different petrol stations in Ireland? I wonder why?

    Put on tinfoil hat and says the main companies bought out pumps..is to ensure we couldn't compare prices.*

    Pumps.ie didn't pull information from the petrol stations. It needed people to post the prices to it.

    Waze has a petrol price function. Unfortunately not enough people use it to be worthwhile, the ones nearest me haven't been updated in months.

    It's not easy to use. I often see petrol station prices, but when it's safe to update the price on Waze, ie stopped in traffic/at lights. I'm too far away from the petrol station for it to allow me to update.
