Directlease is blocking IP numbers that use the server otherwise then visiting the website. I did a test to manage outgoing traffic from HA over a VPN and now it working again. When switch back my original IP is back and in logs I see that im blocked.
Interesting, I wonder if there are some rate limits going on.
I’ll spin up a test instance and see what happens, I might need to do more caching.
What happens if you try the DirectLease mobile app? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.app_it_up.dl_tankservice&hl=en&gl=US (or if it is unavailable DirectLease Tankservice - APK Download for Android | Aptoide)
Using the directlease app same. With own IP no info. When I’m on mobile data I get information
I will disable the automation and wait 24 hours. Let’s see if the block is removed.

My entities seem to not be updating at all? I see the last updated date isnt changing, but i have seen that this might be a known issue.
However the prices arent updating either, and i have checked on the UK gov data that there is updated data.
Here still I’m.blocked by directlease. Even the mobile app doesn’t work on wifi. On mobile data it’s working. The Dutch gas prices integration also have same issues and now looking for a possible way to get the data
I have released a new beta which I believe fixes this but not 100% sure yet. Still testing
Belgium and Netherlands both use the same directlease integration. I didn’t come across this during testing.
What happens if you go to the following URL?
https://tankservice.app-it-up.com/Tankservice/v2/places?fmt=web&country=NL&country=BE&lang=en
It seems to have updated after updating to beta. also see the next update field is now filled. great work 
ill let you know if it updates automatically over the coming days!

In case someone wants it in the future.
Here is how to send a Text to speech notification to your phone that tells you the lowest price of the fuel in your area:
service: notify.mobile_app_sm_g991b
data:
message: TTS
title: ""
data:
channel: alarm_stream_max
tts_text: |-
{% set name = ((states.device_tracker
| selectattr('entity_id', 'in', integration_entities('fuel_prices'))
| sort(attribute='attributes.B7', reverse=false)
| map(attribute='attributes.brand')
| list)[0])
%}
{% set price = ((states.device_tracker
| selectattr('entity_id', 'in', integration_entities('fuel_prices'))
| sort(attribute='attributes.B7', reverse=false)
| map(attribute='attributes.B7')
| list)[0])
%}
"Diesel is cheapest at {{ name }} today, the price is {{price}} Pence per litre"
priority: high
ttl: 0
Simply change the wording to your fuel type, currency and unit of measurement and change the B7 to the name of the fuel type you get in your area
I have priority set to high on the notification so it plays over do not disturb which automatically turns on when i am driving. You can of course change this if you prefer.
I have just set up this automation to play when homeassistant detects that i am on my way home. So when i am on my way back from work it will notify me so i can swing by the cheapest one around where i live

A bit late to give you an answer, but you can with card mod:
type: map
entities:
- entity: device_tracker.car
- entity: device_tracker.asda
- entity: device_tracker.morrisons
- entity: device_tracker.tesco
card_mod:
style:

Thats not great, I think the only options around this is to either email them, use a proxy or another source needs to be used.
I added some additional protections to prevent overloading the API with random update intervals of 1 day + 1-240mins + 1-60secs but as they are implementing some IP blocks, there is little I can do myself.
Will update the docs and update handler for directlease though to handle this a bit more gracefully.
I get this exact problem “Please wait, starting…” I have uininstalled/removed folder, reinstalled via HACS custom respository, rebooted. Still the same problem. Any ideas? Thanks.
I have tried release 2024.1.0 and latest beta version (2024.2.0b1) - same problem with both.
Not sure if these log entries are related…
Can you create an issue on GitHub with the full debug logs please?
I think when you get a ban it permanent… Still now Im blocked.
Yes, I think you will need to email them, perhaps ask why the mobile app isn’t working properly and they would be more inclined to investigate.
Struggling to get this to work
I have added it to HACS< downloaded - Restarted
in the logs it says
File "/config/custom_components/fuel_prices/__init__.py", line 73, in async_setup_entry
raise CannotConnect from err
custom_components.fuel_prices.CannotConnect
Well I thought I followed the instructions, maybe not. I get this error when trying to add the integration.
It just gets stuck on trying to add the integration for the first time:
