Between 1 and 3 pence would be added as you place the spout back in its holder. Iirc trading standards paid them a visit and the problem suddenly stopped. Funny that 🤣 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pyrotequila Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Some petrol pumps have a series of buttons on them, similar to this; https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fgve9szlbqo301.jpg%3Fwidth%3D1080%26crop%3Dsmart%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D6fd625dbfcb9028129948fc25f2247f74fe149ee You can actually tap in the spending cap and the pump itself will cut out to stop you from going over 🤑 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only annoyance is that the final 70p or so is painfully slow as it slows down to a trickle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
