My daughter is a college student at EMU and we live 45 minutes from the campus. She stopped here and gave them 15.00 dollars for gas. She mistakenly gave them the wrong pump number and realized this when she went back out to pump it. When she went back in to let them know this, they told her a lady had pumped her gas already and that she needed to go catch her before she left (she was pulling out of the lot), she didnt try to catch her. The owner named Glen stated too bad for her she should have known her pump number and that he is too busy to keep up with everyones mistakes....soo he left my college student stranded with no gas, hysterical, crying and scared...not the best area...

He was not remorseful, only wanted me as her parent to know, she was rude. He didn't like her attidtufde so he just didn't give her her money back.

Beware of this guy..better b on your A game now or you will lose your money!!!

Nothing more than a pump scam that didn't work

AUTHOR: Will - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Saturday, April 16, 2011

I would bet the daughter and the person who drove off were friends. A lot of broke college kids know this trick.  A person goes inside and pays for gas (usually female) and runs back in upset because someone else used the gas. If the upset person puts on a good show the attendant may go ahead and credit the person for the gas "stolen" and the 2 people go to another station and try it again. No rip-off here, only a easily fooled mother.

Simple solution! It's called "pay at the pump"!

AUTHOR: Steve - (USA)

POSTED: Saturday, April 16, 2011

I cannot believe that your daughter would head off to college without a debit card or credit card! Was that the last $15 she had to her name? I doubt it. Almost every gas station has pay at the pump.I won't get gas anywhere that doesn't offer it.

Citgo?? Do you like supporting Hugo Chavez, and seeing your money go to terrorism? I would get a bike before I would buy anything from Citgo!

Wake up!

Court Case

In a court case, the op's story would be considered hearsay.  Then the daughter would testify and win the case.

Sounds like Glen made himself an easy 15 bux.  I hope he's real proud of himself.  And even telling your daughter to go catch the lady.  A real winner.

Interesting

AUTHOR: Robert - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, April 14, 2011

Interesting how the story changes when you realize what you wrote doesn't really help your claims.  Almost as interesting as why if this happened to your daughter are you the one posting the report?

I wonder what the next version of your story will be.  I am thinking some conspiracy theory between the cashier and this woman.  Hey you might even throw in a Keith Friberg smoothie(regulars know what this means)

Oh and yes the comparison is very valid.  But of course I can see how you don't see the simularity, because if you did you would have to admit that even though your daughter made a mistake the gas station is under no obligation to give her any money back.  Just as in a test where if she made a mistake the professor is under no obligation to change her grade.

Anyways I hope you show the news stations both versions of your report..  Then when they do the report please post the link, as I am sure that everyone would love to see it.

Gas station rip off

AUTHOR: Robin - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, April 14, 2011

Actually found out the gas attendent put the gas on the wrong pump, not my daughter and the problem solvers from chanel 2 seem to think its worth looking into..Really a gas attendent to a test score. cmon...

This is a customer service issue. You own a station you know how to run it.. if you can't figure out you dont put money on a pump someone is already pumping on. Not rocket scientry. She would not have had less than 1/4 of a tank had she been able to pump her gas.

mistakes happen

AUTHOR: coast - (USA)

POSTED: Thursday, April 14, 2011

Your daughter inadvertently paid for another person's gas. The gas station attendant honored the purchase request by a customer (your daughter) and should not be penalized for it. Not a rip off.

Not the stations fault

AUTHOR: Robert - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, April 14, 2011

Your daughter gave them the wrong pump number and someone pumped the amount she paid for...CASE CLOSED

Perhaps your daughter should take this as a lesson to be a little more aware.  I would be willing to bet that every time she goes to pump gas from now on she is going to double-check her pump number.

Here is something you and your daughter can think about.  What would happen if she took a test in school, turned the test in, had it graded and then "realized" she put A instead of B?  Do you think the professor would say "Oh no problem I'll go right ahead and change your grade".  Would you be writing a RipOff report on the professor if they didn't let her change the answer after it was graded?

Where To Begin

AUTHOR: Cory - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, April 14, 2011

There's just so much wrong in this little story. I would expect that kind of mistake from a fifth grader, but a college student? Lord, I took off for the Marines at 18 as soon as I graduated from high school. "He left my college student stranded with no gas, hysterical, crying and scared...not the best area". "She was rude" SEE PREVIOUS COMMENT. The little princess needs to wise up and grow up. It's a cold, cruel world out there. One other thing. I've taught my wife and grandkids. Don't EVER let your vehicle get below a quarter of a tank of gas. Then you don't have to worry about running out of gas in the "not the best area".
