Default BP Ultimate Price Gouging

I just sent this via a feedback form to BP. Thought I might share it here for discussion.

---

I have fed my GT Falcon a diet of Ultimate 98 since new, some 82,000km of motoring on it. But I must say the huge price disparity between base unleaded and Ultimate is now very galling.

Last night I paid more than 22 cents over the 91 price at a BP branded service station near Chirnside. That's just bull**** price gouging.

The original price difference between base unleaded and Ultimate when it started was around 5 per cent, last night I paid almost 20 per cent more for a tank of Ultimate than 91. That is more than $15 a tank premium to run Ultimate 98.

Surely you guys are now just taking the ****..?
