Ah, yes. Looking at the email again, it does look like it was from PayPal.

I tried fill up and go today and found it confusing.
Normally I fill up the car first and only after that I go to the till and pay. With shell fill up and go I need to initiate the transaction through my phone *before* actually filling up the the car! I find it ridiculous. Who designed this? Digitising fuel payment episode is a great great idea, but cusomter experience shouldn't be compromised. How it should work: I fill up the car first and only after that I take the phone out of my pocket and transact. This is the only right sequence of events. How shell could miss this key concept? Oh maybe I'm an idiot... Explain me

My understanding of it is you authorise payments before filling up from the safety of inside the car.
Then you get out leaving said phone in your pocket or car and fill up and go. Not fill up then faff around with the phone in a cloud of explosive vapour trying to pay for the fuel in the cold and wind. To me the process makes sense, shame I'm still waiting to find a bloody station that does it.

After I filled up the car I'm happy to sit in it and pay sitting in the A8 interior.
In full safety, avoiding winds, cold climates and having to go to the till. The key word is after

But if it didn't work after you filled up without alternative means of payment that would be a bit of bother.
Just wish they would hurry up and roll it out across the stations

It's been in my local Shell almost from the start, but it worked for a week or two and hasn't worked since! There's just a hand-written sign to say there are 'technical difficulties'.
But I wouldn't use it anyway because my bank gives me 'cash back' on petrol purchases on my credit card.
