      While waiting for my car to be done pumping petrol, I went to the kiosk’s convenience store to grab some bread.


      Then all of a sudden, the staff told me someone drove off with my car without paying. :scared: I continued browsing in the store as I thought she made a mistake as I could still see my car from far leh. Later when I went to make payment, they realised someone drove off without paying for his petrol but paid for my petrol instead.

      The idiot paid $50 (my bill) while he asked for $100 worth of petrol. Good luck to him as the petrol kiosk staff will make police report shortly and they told me their CCTV recording clearly showed the person to be in the wrong.

          Maybe blur guy gave the wrong pump # and paid blindly.


          I almost did that a few times. Got the pump numbers mixed up.

            Unbelievable if that person did it intentionally. Any chance of mistakes in quoting the number of pump?

              If in too much of hurry & mindlessly quote wrong number possible to make such mistakes. But coz of marked price diff, he’s going hv to face the music & embarrass himself.


              But gosh, lee_yl, my heart almost skipped a beat when I said they claimed someone drove off yr car! What an alarm!

              So, did u hv to pay the $50? Hope it doesn’t get the staff into accounting difficulties.

                Yes. Can say that, he only paid half of what he pumped and drove off.


                Maybe like the earlier case where a pump attendant had to fork out from his own pocket after a BMW asked for $10 but was given a full tank of petrol.

                I am not sure if for this case the cashier has to fork out from her pocket but the two cashiers on duty were very panicky. They phoned their supervisor Immediately and was instructed to make police report.

                Actually, I told the cashier the same thing. Maybe got the pump numbers mixed up?

                If yes, it could be the cashier’s fault (haha). But cashier told me how could the guy ask for $100 or full tank but only paid $50 then diam diam. 😂

                Yes, I paid $50 via a offline transaction. On 2nd thoughts, maybe I should just drive off since an idiot paid for my petrol. 😂

                    lee_yl,

                    You don't want the capture shots to appear in ST, I'm sure. Don't even let that cross your mind.

                    At least u did the right thing intuitively & reduce the burdens of the staff. You alr said they panicked so imagine if u drive off too! They won't call their sup they'll just dial 999 for sure coz then it looks like 2 drivers in cahoots to confuse them. 😉

                        In Spore, no one can escape. It's like George Owell brother's watching u everywhere. :evil:



                        How else we can survive in safety without police on the streets? Some fr neighboring countries think no one watching came in boat-loads to find gold on streets & money spilling out of machines some years back? Rotan very effective coupled with CCTVs.
