Anyone else getting quoted different prices for fuel containing FAME and without?

Fame free 2.5p more expensive up here.
I thought the fame free stuff came from Aberdeen!?
We paid extra for supplier to source fame free from Aberdeen instead of grangemouth during winter.
Error codes on a fastrac and puma all stopped when switched fuel.
I actually pumped most of the previous fuel out of the puma, got errors codes when drove to other shed to fuel up, error codes all gone when started on Aberdeen sourced fuel.
Have noticed current fuel is back to looking frothy when filling and our puma gives occasional ad blue codes.
Makes me think fame in fuel not really as green as they would like to think

Apparently fame fuel has vegetable oil in it which becomes thicker at lower temperatures. Its £150 cheaper to fill our main tank tank with fame fuel.

Yes it either comes from Aberdeen or the West coast. We are ten miles from Aberdeen!
