Complaint Review: BP Gas Station

BP Gas Station I was charged a different gas price for Regular Gas. Regular Gas was for $2.14 & so I filled up 15 gallons. I ended up paying $47.02 which seemed alot for the price & gallons I had chosen. I printed my BP receipt & it said BP charged me $2.94 for 15 gallons, instead of $2.14. I have pictures of the pump as well. Villa Park Illinois

 I went to BP Gas Station in Villa Park, IL on Nov. 10, 2015 & the Regular Gas price was at $2.14. I filled up 15 gallons of Regular. At the end I ended up paying $47.02 at the pump which was odd & alot for 15 gallons. So I printed my receipt & it showed that BP charged me $2.94 for 15 gallons, instead of $2.14 like I had seen advertised on their Display & pump price for Regular Gas Price. I tried to tell the Clerk that I was charged the wrong price but she had the doors locked & wouldn't open the door.

There is one big problem with your "RipOff".  Do you know what that is?

You have NO proof that you selected the Regular Gas.  There is the Supreme Gas at $2.94/gallon which is what you say you were charged.  So for all anyone knows is you selected the higher gasoline.  Perhaps by mistake, but still that is what was pumped.

It is also interesting how you took the time to take a picture of all 3 gas prices, the price the pump that showed what you paid.  But you didn't take the time to take a picture of the receipt that you say you printed out.  This is important because I could almost guarantee you that the receipt would most likely have shown what gas you actually selected.

If you paid with a debit or credit card then the price will go up. Remember no matter how easy a card is, it is not the coin of the realm. Cash is. Since each merchant has to pay for your purchase each time you use your card. Its up to $0.50+ per credit transaction. Gas is sold by the gallon. They are allowed to charge for EACH gallon sold the merchant fees. The clerk has zero control over the price when you pay with a card, its done automatically. Just because the card companies have convinced you that your card is the same as cash, it is not. You have not been ripped off, this is the cost of using your card instead of cash.

YOU chose the method of payment. Now they are a victim of your defamation and assumption. Your ignorance is the issue and due ONLY to your ignorance they now have a negative issue to deal with. Perhaps in the future you will educate yourself a bit BEFORE you go on the web and whine. The entire web is not facebook and there are real life consequences for your actions online. In this instance you have accused them of theft and deceit all because you are ignorant. It isnt fair of you to make baseless accusations without knowledge. They would be well within thier rights to take action against you for what you have WILLINGLY posted.
