Hi,
Can anyone vouch for the date of compilation and / or the accuracy and thoroughness of the Shell Petrol POI which is available here for download
Many thanks
David

Well, it's certainly more accurate than the information that is on the Shell Website. 
It's also getting better all the time, as users submit corrections for any errors that were present in the original POI File compiled Jan '07.

Many thanks

It's on the POI download page. There is an option there to , add, change or delete a POI.
There are full instructions there also.
I think it is 'oldboy' who has posted a full 'how to' instructions, it is on one of the 'sticky' pages. Sorry I can't post the link to it.
But it is there.

I wish. 
You refer, of course, to This.
But do read beyond the First Post, as some of the procedure has changed.
(I will have a word).
