caltex ripped me off!!!

**spiff** · September 29th, 2005 01:32 PM

had 400 bucks filled up in caltex on c5 going towards eastwood. this was on a empty tank...
drove off and realized empty tank indicator was still on and it wasnt going off..
didnt think it was broken because my car is just a couple of weeks old.
i wanted to drive back but i was running late so i just ended up filling up again...
i put another 400 bucks in and true enough gauge rose to a little over a fourth.

so its impossible that i had 800 bucks worth of gas and gauge is only a little above one fourth.

if i wasnt running late i would have driven back and freaking complained and done something about this. but i couldnt, obviously now complaining to them wouldnt matter anymore because i woulnt have proof.

is it really possible for gas stations to cheat on customers? dont they calibrate all the time? i was able to see clearly that i was cheated.. but what about stations that rip you off 2 or 3 or 5 liters.. you wouldnt know.is this possible? and i watch everything.. i saw the thing hit 400.. how the hell does something like this happen

tangina i really wanted to back and beat the **** out of that gas attendant

pwede pa sana yan ireklamo, may time naman yung resibo eh. then pakita mo rin yung sa isang station na pinakargahan mo rin.

para malaman nila na may nagrereklamo, baka di nila alam eh defective na pala yung dispenser nila (sana nga)... kasi pwede pa nilang maulit yan.

Di naman kaya natapon yung gas? Nangyari sa akin dati yan eh, pinasok niya yung hose tapos iniwan, then di napansin, nahulog pala! Tapos takbo agad para maibalik pretending na hindi nahulog... when I was about to pay, I saw yung pavement puro gasoline ... tapos nag-check ako nung side ng car ko and tires puro gasoline din! Nung una pilit pa ako paniwalain na wala daw yun konti lang pero kapag tingnan mo basa na halos yung buong lugar sa gas! Ugok talaga yun!
