As the filling station was not yet open I used the Pay at Pump facility - as I often do,,,
This is never straightforward as last week when filling Pix I needed to visit three pumps before I found a functional one... The others had run out of till roll and that stops the whole thing from working, even if you don't want a receipt printed
This morning it all went very smoothly, the first pump I visited worked and all seemed good. I took on £18-worth of fuel... Half a tank in a Saxo
I pressed the button to print myself a receipt and sallied forth into the supermarket to stock up on human fuel feeling smug and happy all had gone so well
The food shop was good too. Very quiet, well stocked and very tranquil. I was in and out in 20 minutes with well filled trolley
Once home, I looked at my petrol receipt... It said I'd been charged over £33 and many more litres than I'd bought
I looked at the date and time on the receipt and it was 9:19 PM the previous evening
I posted about this on Facebook and several people, including my daughter Robyn, has had this very same thing happen
One of my cousins, who works in a Tesco branch up north, said it's a well-known problem!
Allegedly, the amount charged to your bank account is always correct... I hope so!
It's just the receipt that's wrong and it seems the pump prints them out of sequence
Anyone on here had this happen?
