i was at the petrol station in baldoyle a few months ago around midnight. only car there. i get out and put the nozzle in the filler and wait for the machine to be turned on. nothing happens. i look over at the hatch and there's a paki serving two people. still nothing happens. i take the time to spruce up the interior and wait for the pump to turn on. he's finished serving customers but still the pump does'nt come on. i go over to the hatch and he says put the nozzle back in to it's socket. ok. maybe it needs to reset. i put it back in the car and still the pump does'nt turn on. i go back over to the hatch. how much juice do ye want he says. 20 euro please and he turns the machine on after i give him the dosh. never hadta prepay for juice in my life.

Always have to pay up front in Certa - Cloghran, Finglas and Clare Hall.

Petrol station like that in Inchicore. Used it once but never again. Had to go into the shop and pre-pay for the fuel. When I asked for a receipt, he said you fill up and then come back in for the receipt. I was outraged that I'd have to walk the distance TWICE! Could he not see past my beer belly to notice my taxi roofsign >:D

Not as inconvenient at the Certa stations. You pay at the pump... although I don't think the machines give change if you're a cash client?

He probably knew you'd refer to him as a Paki.
