Hi,
I had the bad experience of getting cheated at the gas pump of one of biggest and oldest petroleum company. I always thought that because the pumps are now digital or electronic, cheating is no longer possible.
On August 20 at about 11PM I topped up my Innova diesel in a Los Banos station. As I drove in the attendant directed me to the pump beside the road (inner side). He urged me to keep moving forward but when I noticed that there was no more pump ahead I stopped. After telling the pump attendant to top it up to automatic and gave him my credit card, I sat down to wait till it's filled up but I happened to glance at the pump meter just a short while later and noticed that it already read more than 16 liters. Anyway, a while later we notice that a pump attendant seemed to be rushing towards my car stopped the nozzle although I noticed that the pump was still running. He then announced "automatic (full) na sir" and the pump read more than 40 liters already. I was surprised because I saw that the pump was still running when he stopped it. I turned on my engine and I looked at the gauge and that it was still less than full. I got off to check my tank. When he came back with the receipt, I asked him to fill it some more and indeed it took another 9.5 liters before automatically stopping. In total, the amount charged to me was almost 50 liters. My tank was still 1/4 full when I topped up and the tank has 55-liter capacity. I was obviously shortchanged. I have complained by email to the oil company but have yet to receive a response after more than 48 hours so I'm posting this here. Please beware, they can cheat even with the electronic pumps.
