My FuelWatch

FuelWatch has offers free daily fuel price e-mails. Now we've made this feature even better - and because FuelWatch has always been about saving you money, we've decided to rename it to "My FuelWatch"! For more information, select the "My FuelWatch" menu and click "About My FuelWatch".

How do I use My FuelWatch? Firstly you need to subscribe. There are two possible ways of subscribing:

  • If you were already a subscriber to the free daily FuelWatch price e-mails, then you're already a subscriber of My FuelWatch. Your 'username' is the e-mail address you used to subscribe to the daily e-mails. Your 'password' is your old PIN. Forgotten your PIN? You can click the 'forgot password' link to have it e-mailed to you. Now, because you don't need to register again, skip ahead to 'Logging in to My FuelWatch'.
  • If you have never subscribed before, then follow the following steps to join My FuelWatch.

To register for My FuelWatch, select the "My FuelWatch" menu, and click "Register". You will see the following screen:

Registration Step 1

Simply fill out the form with your details (make sure you get the e-mail address right, otherwise we can't contact you!). Having problems filling out the form? Here are some hints:

  • Password - this will be the password that you use to log into My FuelWatch. It has to be between 6 and 8 characters. Try to pick something secure, made up of both letters and numbers - remember, if you forget your password, you can always have a clue sent to you.
  • Confirm Password - you need to enter your password again into this field, to make sure you have typed it correctly.
  • Password Hint - it's only natural for people to forget things - passwords, phone numbers, even names. That's why we ask you for a password hint - if you can't remember your password, we'll send you this hint to help jog your memory.
  • First Name, Last Name, Address, Suburb - we just want to get to know you! Don't worry; we won't give out your personal details to anyone .

There are two more options for you to select at the bottom of the form. The first is labelled "Do you wish to receive free price information by email?" If you click the box marked "Yes", you will start receiving FREE personalised FuelWatch e-mails - the next page will let you select what areas you are interested in.

The second option lets you participate in FuelWatch's online community forum - also known as the "FuelWatch Forum". The FuelWatch forum was created to give Western Australian consumers the chance to voice their opinions about a wide variety of subjects relating to petrol and LPG in WA. Members of the FuelWatch Forum may from time to time be asked to participate in surveys and questionnaires about topics such as fuel prices, the types of fuel you use, when and why you fill up, and your feedback on the website. Don't worry - you can always change your mind and leave the Forum.

If you ever want to change your details, you can do so by clicking on the "Update Personal Details" link beneath the "My FuelWatch" menu while you are logged in. Once you have completed filling in your information, click "Next" to move on to step 2.

The "Update Search Details" page works in a very similar way to the price search page (for information about how to search for prices, see "Help - Searching for Prices"). The main difference is the addition of the "Frequency" option. This let's you select how often you receive My FuelWatch e-mails. The most popular option (and what will be selected by default) is Daily - this means that you will receive tomorrow's prices in your inbox every afternoon around 4PM. But what if you only ever buy fuel on the weekends? No problem - just select Saturday and Sunday from the list instead, and you will only receive prices for those days.

Select Frequency

The other option on this page is the "Save Search to" option. This lets you decide where you want to save your search. If you aren't receiving My FuelWatch e-mails, and only want to save your favourite search as your "My Prices" search (which will appear on the front page whenever you log in), then check "My Prices". If you want to receive My FuelWatch e-mails, then make sure that "Email" is also checked.

Once you've selected your options, then click "Finish" and you're done - congratulations! You've now signed up for My FuelWatch..
