Fortress Clutched September 2, 2009 Share September 2, 2009 (edited) Hi all, This happened to me for at least the last 3 refueling at Caltex pump (AMK Ave 3 and Ave 1) over the last 10 days. I set the pump at S$50 twice and just a while ago S$70, however, the pump filled it to 1 cent more each time. Do not know whether this has happened before but I took notice recently. The first time I let it be, thereafter I took issue with the kiosk and they relented. Can you imagine that there are thousands of cars, and they make one cent MORE each time you pump, which a breach of agreement, in my view !! Just take note whenever you pump your fuel.

Bitx Neutral Newbie September 2, 2009 Share September 2, 2009 don't they round down to the nearest 5cents? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic September 2, 2009 Share September 2, 2009 Get then back bro, pump $49.95 next time! That will teach them to try to cheat u! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusje Supersonic September 2, 2009 Share September 2, 2009 They make 1 cent more but they also gave you 1 cent more worth of fuel.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Espire 1st Gear September 2, 2009 Share September 2, 2009 i also realised when they gave 10% discount.. it is always stated as 10.10% discount on the receipt. does this apply to you also? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leepee 1st Gear September 2, 2009 Share September 2, 2009 I think ts is paying by ccard, so charge exactly. But one can cheat back by paying cash, it will round down. So can theoreticall cheat petrol station of max four cents worth of petrol each time. One more way of cheating, most nozzles got some petrol left over. While at the pumps, insert the other two nozzles into your car fillcap to gain those residual petrol. Do not press the trigger hot, just tilt the nozzles into fillcap. Then proceed to pump with the third nozzle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kb27 Supersonic September 2, 2009 Share September 2, 2009 It's just a number we see. How do we even know a litre pumped is exactly a litre we get? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achtung 6th Gear September 2, 2009 Share September 2, 2009 All these just for 1 cent bro? As one bro said, u got 1 cent worth of petrol too!? If anyone's gonna let loose on it having to do with 'Principles'....... please don't. It is really a small matter. Haiz.. Singaporeans. This thread belongs in STOMP.

Can you imagine that there are thousands of cars, and they make one cent MORE each time you pump !!How much they already make and in this case, in m y view is cheating. Please take note whenever you pump your fuel. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightFox Neutral Newbie September 2, 2009 Share September 2, 2009 Typical Singaporean mindset.....reminds me of one incident at ECP Lagoon. Was there with my family for dinner, and when I was in the toilet I over heard two guys telling the cleaner sitting at the main door, wash hands only, dun need to pay right? I mean come on, its only 10cents..... you're paying to the person who has to smell your s--t and pee and worse of all clean up after you. Utter disgrace I'll say...
