DO NOT PAY WITH A CREDIT CARD / Debit Card. They will hold $151 for 5 “BUSINESS” days from your bank. They also have horrible customer service (rude and condescending). DO NOT PUMP GAS AT THIS STATION IF YOU DON’T have cash.

Do not pay at the pump, company has held $151 of mine for now 7 days. They are taking the maximum allowed days to refund canceled transactions. This means they get to use your money for a week or more to pay their bills, employees and invest while they make you wait like a commoner. Will not pump gas here anymore after several years. Pumps are always full and you have to wait in line. 0/5 stars.
