I'll use any of the major brands and 7-11(currently 100% Shell supplied) wouldn't go near Freedom or Neumann or any servo supplied by Neumann for anything other than Ice Matilda for diesel only at a pinch(owned by Neumann but has a deal with Shell for supply of Matilda fuels)

Caltex 95/98 Premium, get 4c off every litre (caltex woolworths), ends up being cheapest usually.

In Brisbane all your fuel comes from one of two refineries and there's a pipeline between the two....

Shell for LPG when at home cos it's 12c p/l cheaper than the only other place in town to get it.... and I've never had an issue with Shell LPG even though alot of members say they have.

Vortex 98 for me its probably no different to shell or bp but ive never had a problem with it.
I guess its best to fill at a busy servo with high turnover imo |

I will use which ever 98RON is cheapest at the time, usually ends up being Caltex (Woolies).

BP and use E10 like an octane booster. Top up tank with $10 or so..
Long trips interstate I fill up with whatever is around at the time.. Usually 95/ 98 then next tank I fill with E10.. All turbo cars.. Use Caltex in Rodeo [N/A lol] as I have work Caltex card...

Caltex 98 only because my Fuel Card is Caltex, can also use Safeway Fuel but don't as there Servo's around here are small & it takes ages for them to clear.
If I had the choice, I'd use BP.
