    Sa Petron JP Rizal corner Reposo (in Makati) pag nagpakarga ka sa kanila, they seldom close the tank properly. My guess is gusto nila sumingaw kaagad yung fuel mo para masmabilis ka babalik. Maganda kasi yung location ng Petron na 'to sa lugar namin. The nearest gas station after this is really really out of the way kaya minsan no choice kaming mga taga dito, ako na lang nagsasara. Don't get me wrong, hindi naman sa tamad ako magsara, pero kasi just the thought na ganun ang gawain nila e nakakainit na ng ulo.

    usually, depende sa gas boy kung gaano kagaling magbigay ng service. pero at that station, mejo mahina nga service nila. three weeks ako, nagpagas ako jan. walang tumulong sa akin magpahangin. lumalabas na i-diy ko na lang kasi nang itinanong ko, tinuro lang sa nguso ng gas boy yong compressor. kung dressed to kill ka papuntang office or meeting, mahirap mag-diy maglagay ng hangin. tsaka magkikipag-agawan ka pa sa mga jeep and tricycle drivers na nagpapahangin duon. kayo tumuloy na lang ako sa shell maya at duon ako nagpahangin.

    so far, magaling ang service ng mga gas boys sa caltex shaw corner pioneer. habang naggagas ka, titingnan nila gulong mo, alukin ka pa nila na linisan windshield mo. kaya mejo malaki tip ko sa kanila pagmagpahangin ako.

    so far, also ok din ang shell edsa corner buendia. ireremind ka pa sa safety procedures bago maglagay ng gas. ingat ka lang duon kasi aalokin ka nila ng super unleaded with E10 --> mejo may kahinaan ang hatak nito based on my experience.

    Petron in Pasong Tamo is one to avoid... got holdupped before there in the CR while answering nature's call. After the event, we asked why the guard didn't hear me shout right after them bad guys ran, his excuse was he was doing the rounds. But upon checking with the rest of the staff, dun lang naman daw lagi ung guard sa harap ng tindahan ng petron lagi nakapost.

    Also, tabi rin ng area ay yung tambakan ng basura. Worst of it all, may times pa na may mga bata dun na nambabato ng malalaking bato sa windshield. Tatlo na trucks namin na nadali jan.

    Yung Caltex on the southbound section of Commonwealth right after the Shell station sa may Ever, madaya. One time I filled up there to a certain amount (forgot na how much) and after a week I had to fill up the same amount. First time I went there I was at 1/4 and filled it up to 1/2 for the same price. The next time I went, hindi umabot ng 1/2. And this was still way before the time they add 0.50 Petot to each L per week.

    I asked to talk to their manager or kung sino in-charge and showed them the receipt of the last time I filled up there (which was the previous fill up I did, actually, so I didn't go anywhere else to fill up in between). They insisted their calibration is correct.

    I never went back there anymore, sa Shell na lang ako or Petron. Gave me a bad image of Caltex.

    petron nlex marilao yung grocery store nila grabe ang presyo sa mahal. imagine, pringles 180 pesos. last nov 1, we went home to province and stopped at this gas station and bought some snacks. laking gulat namin pagbayad, almost one thousand pesos ang inabot ng pirasong snacks at drinks na binili namin.

    caltex nlex malinta, grabe wala tubig ang comfort room.

    avoid gas stations na lubog pagmay baha.

    If this is truly the Petron Gas Station beyond Pasong Tamo Ext. then I know the owner...

    Let me talk to him and I'll see what I can do...

    Petron erod. Samay Araneta. 36.65 ang Xtra compared sa 37.37 ng ibang petron pero tuwing dito ako nagpapagas ambilis maubos. Baka hindi calibrated ang pump.

    once i encounter bad customer service, i avoid them na. unless talagang kelangan kong magpa-gas at the same station.
    ayoko rin ng gas stations na marumi ang paligid. napapabayaan na kasi yun mga ganun tipo. what more sa gasolina nila, malamang may putik putik na yun

    shell gas station sa a.bonifacio ave near "estrella" border ng taytay at cainta. madaya ang gas pumps.

    yung caltex gas station naman sa visayas ave, malapit sa gazebo royale tanga ang mga gas boy.

    ang linaw ng instruction ko, sabi ko silver, nagtanong pa ulet: silver ba sir? sabi ko oo.

    pagtingin ko sa kinarga GOLD. pinagalitan ko na lang ng sobra kase nagmamadali na ren ako, pero gusto ko talaga ipatawag yung station manager sana.
