M’sians Who Paid RM2.60 For RON95 Due To Budi95 Glitches Can Claim Refunds Starting Today

Claims apply to purchases made between Sept 30 and Oct 31.
Motorists who were mistakenly charged the unsubsidised price for RON95 due to technical glitches at petrol stations can now recover the difference, says Deputy Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister Datuk Dr Fuziah Salleh.

She said the Budi Madani RON95 (Budi95) programme has been running smoothly nationwide since it was introduced on Tuesday, Oct 7, 2025, with only “a few minor glitches” that were resolved quickly.

“There were some complaints, such as system outages, but it was managed speedily. However, if motorists ended up paying unsubsidised RON95 prices as a result, they may file for a claim,” she said.

Low SKPS sign-ups so far

The ministry is engaging groups such as taxi associations to accelerate sign-ups.
Those who register late can still claim backdated subsidies from Oct 1, 2025, provided they produce receipts.

Enforcement reminder

Foreign vehicles are not allowed to fill up with subsidised RON95. The public is urged to report violations to the ministry.
