App useless without location enabled
Why is it so difficult to automatically default to the home location set in the app when the location service on the phone is not turned on? Why select a default store in the first place? I generally do not need to have location tracking enabled on my phone but for some reason some developers seem to insist on it.Show lessUsed to be life changing…
So apparently you removed for me to choose a location to activate the pump no matter where I’m located. Please put that back. This was a great benefit to a parent. I could activate a pump for my child from anywhere and now I can’t. He was out of gas and I couldn’t turn on a pump while he sat there. I shouldn’t have to give my account login to help anyone out when in need. I’ve also been able to pay for my elderly parents gas when they desperately needed it to get to dr appt. Please turn this valuable option back on!!!!!!Show lessDeveloper Response
dontwant1, we apologize for the inconvenience caused by this change, however there is too much fraud and security risk to allowing the long-range activation. We strongly recommend having their device logged in to activate the pump while at the station or nearby, vs. the method you described. Once their app is logged in, it should remain logged in for a very long time and you wouldn't need to share access information.I really like this app but…..
This is a decent app and I really like the rewards program and such but what’s frustrating for me is what I’ve read from other users where you sit at the pump trying over and over in vain to use the rewards and it won’t load so you end up paying regular price for your gas. It counteracts the rewards benefits, doesn’t it? Then, I also don’t like having to use the last four of my social security number to register my debit card. Don’t you know how much more sensitive that information is? I don’t like it and want to add my debit card but I’m NOT going to share any part of my social, period! To save money on gas and other things? I don’t think so. I’d rather cancel it all and go elsewhere. Please change that requirement. In today’s world where so much theft and corruption are rampant I would hope you see the logic in this.Show lessDeveloper Response
I'm sorry the enrollment process hasn't met your expectations. We request this information when a customer signs up for payment as a security feature. This verifies your identity as the checking account owner, and helps us collect payment in the event of a returned transaction. I understand if you are uncomfortable sharing this information. You can certainly use the Parker's Rewards card without payment. All members earn 10¢ off per gallon with every $25 you spent inside the store. You also receive exclusive pricing on fountain drinks, fresh food, and more. You do not need to add payment to enjoy these benefits.
