Title Some drivers are paying more for petrol because of where they live Degree of recognition National Media name/outlet Channel 7 Media type Television Duration/Length/Size 1:21 Country/Territory Australia Date 18/11/19 Description This story was making the public aware that the fuel price cycles has now widened to around 45-50 cents depending on the fuel type and where you live. Some fuel stations increased their prices substantially above the average. Should the price cycle be capped at 20 cents or should we rather pay a slightly higher price and ban unexplained large jumps in price cycles? Dr De Mello called for a Royal Commission into fuel pricing as the major retail outlets were increasing their margins with any substance or justification. Consumers were encouraged to use various apps provided in each state to make informed choices when looking to fill up at the bowser. What was not reported was the fact that major oil players were advertising various competitions and discounts during the price hike to entice consumers to purchase fuel which is not in the best interest of the consumer.
