Could only happen to me, Tesco Fuel
« on: 12 June 2012, 22:43:20 »

Due to my ongoing intermittant LPG issues on the 3.2 and work load this week, I decided enough and pulled into Tescos and decided to fill up the the tank with Millenium 99 and treat the old girl. Half way through the fill up I noticed one of the atendants standing next to me and waving to the Staff at the kiosk and also noticed a load of people standing next to there cars like Meehrkats,

'Problem I asked', No his said just waiting for you to finish before we change the the price!

You guessed it, filled the tank only to find its dropped 2p a litre after my fill up.

I think I'd have been chatting with the manager. The price of the fuel in the tank didn't change when you finished filling so, as a goodwill gesture, they may have honoured the lower price :-\

Thats just what I did LD, problem was (without sounding offensive) the Guy in charge at the kiosk, didn't actually understand English (London), so with real Jobs calling at me had to move on.

I fully agree with you and would do so if it happened to me, I can be an awkward bugger if needed...... :D :D
Mind, if they were putting the price up, I would have not said anything, me two faced, not at all...... :D :D :D

Had this happen a few times, filled up only to go past the same garage a hour later to find the price had dropped. My brother asked me why do you sod about running a mile up the road to a garage to save a couple of quid, well its the feelgood factor, its that the couple of quid saved is in my pocket and not theirs. im happy with that. ;) ;) ;)
