The OTR at Glenelg East are a disgrace and we will never return. My child left his yeti drink bottle there and upon returning to retrieve it he was told by staff that they didn't have it. Unfortunately for them it was on clear display behind the counter. Once he pointed this out they still refused to return it. Who would do this to a child? Show details
Awesome staff at the high street location in Wodonga always smiling even at 3am on a Saturday cheers mate for the extra touch on a warmed up chocolate donut absolutely delicious very satisfying... Show details
The discount does not work for cash. Waste of time getting app. It was painstaking setting up the app to eventually find it useless. The app locked me in a circle trying to sell me coffee. Show details

Car wash only washed one side of my car....not happy also did not clean off some spots on side it did wash.....photos uploaded the side that was washed was great....other side still dirty...
They damaged my car – Don’t trust them they are dishonest. Someone clearly put the wrong chemical in the car wash. There are lines down my paintwork which has been eaten away where the so-called soap squirted under my car. It didn’t even cover the car like it’s supposed to the guy. The panel shop reckons they put either degreaseror wheel cleaner in it by mistake you… Read more
pay to have your car washed not damaged. They will not take any responsibility for their actions. Don’t trust them. Just don’t shop there at all.
Useless Car Wash – Terrible car wash. A meagre trickle of soap, you can see on the roof faint stripes where the thin lines of soap were disbursed. Staff tried to tell me the soap is now clear, so you can't see it, lol. My car wasn't particularly dirty, but it couldn't even clean the glass! It didn't clean or dry the car even though the service is called "wash and dry" - my car came out dirty and dripping wet. Don't waste your time or money.
Useless – I contacted support because apparently I have a problem with my account. They won't fix it. This is their response. (see pic) Show details

has been escalated to the "Treasury Department" and to expect reimbursement in 5 to 7 days. 23rd Dec 2025. have reached out again by email as they still haven't returned my money. 28th December, emailed and called, they "thanked me for my patience and understanding" still no refund. 6th January, emailed and called again, they said problem with the system, will do bank transfer, STILL NO REFUND! Jan 13, another email, back to "escalated to the Treasury Department" No Refund. Is this a legitimate business?

Follow-up · Update 14th Feb 2026: Greater Bank "We have started the investigation with the Merchant. While we wait to hear back, we have refunded $107.55 to your account. This means you won’t pay any charges related to the transaction while the investigation is underway." And that's where we're at.
Why is OTR coffee so weak? It is so frustrating asking every time to make it normal strength. I was told today to pay an extra $1 but I’m done! No more Never again OTR because your coffee all over Adelaide is like warm milk!!! Show details
Follow-up · Don’t buy OTR coffee anymore - too weak and NOT willing to pay extra to make it stronger. And I don’t like strong coffee I just want to know it’s not a cup of warm milk!

For paying $0 on petrol – I agree otr petrol cost is high. I agree app is slow I have to usually wait few extra minutes till it works for payment. I was always reluctant to download the app. Also, my phone don't have enough storage. But, I did it at times I got 2c of a litre sometimes 4c of a litre. But , today I got petrol free. I couldn't believe it until unless I saw… Read more

get processed and they cant pick up for some time. I was upset and i said what uf i have sold my car and moved the state. They said they cant go to police because their app is faulty. I rang bank and checked transaction and paid in full. I use otr app as it is quick and i receive discount. You always drive off when app says good to go. This experience was v embarrassing for me and i m sure for many clients.
Kindly improve your app
Contacted OTR Head Office in South Australia via their website, regarding the Aldinga Beach Happy Wash not working properly. I received a message back to say they would be passing my complaint onto the 'Happy Wash Team'. Well, 6 weeks later and not a word. I can only think that the new owners couldn't give a toss about loyalty and customer service. So it's a giant 'Raspberry' to you and off to another local cash wash. Show details

Hi this is my review forage Rouse Hill OTR car wash. The car was still very dirty after the wash and it didn't dry even after paying for it. Please provide the service if you're charging This is not acceptable Show details
Was charged $5.42 for supposed previous drive off without paying at Holden Hill service station. Although we have used this station very occasionally, we have NEVER driven off without paying. Unable to convince staff that this had to be a systems error I paid the $5.42 as not worth the hassle to formally dispute. Wonder if this is a regular occurrence at OTR? Will never give them my custom again. Show details
OTR Hope Valley. The machine for EFTPOS wasn't working properly (21 Aug) and after paying and driving off I checked my receipt and found I had been overcharged by about $20 so I returned straight away but the staff couldn't seem to find my transaction as I had paid for someone else's petrol (I was charged for the wrong pump no.). The staff member… Read more
guessed at my transaction and gave me $19.20 back. The whole ordeal was frustrating and took a considerable amount of time. I don't normally shop at OTR because of their crass advertising and I won't be going back.
Do not use this app! I was tricked into the free car wash and was charged anyway, they refuse to refund me. They also then told me I owed them money for fuel as a transaction was still pending, their [Content Removed] app caused security issues on my card which was immediately blocked so I had to go and pay instore with another card. They are still trying to charge me again! They are nothing but money grubbing thieves Show details

When Shell bought the BP brand in SA at the OTR sites, they stated that they would accept BP card for 12 months after the changeover. Not even 5 months in and the stagger refuse to take my BP card. Never shopping at an OTR again. Show details

Abusive, rude & offensive behaviour by staff at OTR Modbury – I am writing to express my extreme disappointment and distress following a shocking experience at OTR Modbury on last Saturday at approximately 8:00 pm. Unfortunately, a staff member named Tousheq displayed extremely rude, abusive, and offensive behavior towards my wife and me. The staff member made derogatory comments about my wife's hijab and… Read more
made a personal insult towards me. We were also subjected to verbal abuse, including swearing and yelling. This behavior is completely unacceptable, particularly from a customer service representative.
I hope that OTR will take immediate action to address this incident and ensure that their staff provides respectful and professional service to all customers. I will be escalating this matter further with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) and hope for a more satisfactory response.
OTR Port Wakefield grotty toilets – The toilets at Port Wakefield OTR were disgusting on 22nd November. both Male and Female. The floor was wet with urine, water and muddy shoes flithy dirty and littered with paper and empty coffee cups. The toilet pans and seats were grotty with you know what. Management need to inspect 3 times a day eg. before each meal times. Please do not send junior food staff to do this. Sub contract hygiene cleaning to a local.
Otr evanston =terrible coffees – Had coffees twice now at evanston otr and they were bloody terrible,tasted like dishwater, and when I asked if I could redeem the 2 dollar donut promo they guy said no u had to tell us that b4 and I'm like we'll it wasn't offered to me before ,if I had seen it on screen I would of asked for it ...won't be going there for coffees anymore
Rude service operator says nothing during transaction – 11am 11/09/2024; customer service man said nothing throughout transaction. Extremely rude. Especially when I said “Hi”. OTR needs to start hiring “polite” customer service officers. I need a glass of wine.
weak coffee – Besides the fact that they price gauge fuel & sell over priced crap in store there one redeeming quality was the app & coffee until now, they have taken away the ability to get double shots in the coffee because the normal coffee is weak as cats you know what, not worth keeping the app now so DELETE plus the 5th coffee was automatically redeemed when you ordered that next coffee now you have to navigate the app the redeem it DELETE DELETE DELETE
Worst company in Adelaide. Ridiculous commercial – OTR is the worst company in Adelaide. They should have left things alone. The stores are too big, crowded, cluttered, noisy and inefficient. The commercial is just laughable nonsense. It's a service station and not a very good one at that. Absolute nonsense. Show details
