Gassing It Up

[idleidolidyll]

No, not twisting the wrist, filling it with petrol.

Prepay pisses me off.

I know that when my fuel light comes on it's gonna take ABOUT $20 to fill. With prepay, if you want a receipt as I do (GST regd), you go into the station, GUESS how much it'll take to fill, then stick that much in. Of course that might be too little or too much so we don't usually do it that way.

None of is likely able to guess the exact amount it will take to actually FILL the tank which is what we almost always want to do with a bike before a ride.

So what do we have to do? Well, with prepay we have to go into the station, ask for a fill, go back out and fill it up then go BACK into the gas station to get the receipt. Car drivers can just stick $50 bucks in and know they'll go a fair way on that much fuel.

Why do they use prepay? They'll tell you it's about security and to a small degree it is. However, what it's actually about is cost cutting (I have an insider in the business). Prepay means no forecourt attendants and that much less in wages at a time when the oil companies are posting record profits on the back of speculation about fuel supply. Their costs have hardly risen but the prices at the pumps have risen dramatically (thanks Bush you arsehole).
So don't give too much credence to the old argument that fuel prices at the pump ONLY have tiny profit margins. That, although true, only applies to independant owners (and there's bugger all of them left). I reckon the greedy oil companies deliberately manipulate the cost areas of fuel so that they make massive profits BEFORE it gets to the pump and can whine about margins on the markup at the outlet.

So what to do about PrePay?
Well what I do when I enter a gas station with ONLY prepay (Some have 1 or 2 on normal), is to get off my bike or out of my car and ask for the manager. I then tell him that I'll never buy gas off him for my bike or car because prepay is an imposition and a pain in the arse.
You might think that's pointless but it isn't. The Caltex station on the Great Sth rd in Manukau has listened and they specifically let motorbikes fill up without prepay (yes, I've chatted with them).

So support that gas station and try to get others to do the same.
PrePay sucks big time. Eftpos at pump is fine and unlike a few of my friends, I have no problem taking my helmet off for security reasons (I've lived in Asia where you might be shot if you walked into any building with a helmet on).

Of course this kind of thing relies on apathetic Kiwis to get off their arses and make a stand for motorcyclists by letting the gas station know why you have driven out WITHOUT BUYING any gas. Many of you won't do anything about it for just that reason but others might have another opinion:

What's yours?

[Steam]

Chalk one up for me the apathetic Kiwi. I can't be bothered getting het up about stuff like this. So it's an extra 40m to walk, who cares. I need to walk more anyway, too many pies.

Oil companies evil, yes indeed. They'll get theirs though, when the crash comes. Oh no, wait, that's when they'll start getting REALLY rich.
Ahh well, we're all doomed anyway.

That's a very colourful post by the way, it reminds me of a orange Fruju iceblock. Ahh summer.

[Ixion]

Now on this I totally agree with you. I hate prepay with a vengeance.

Usually i just look over to where the guy is, point to the bike. Mostly they turn the pump on. If not I go in (very grumpily) and say "It's a motorbike. No fuel guage. No idea at ALL how much it will take. What are YOU going to do ?" And wait.

Occasionally I've had them try the "leave your credit card" trick. No way "You don't trust me. Well, I don't trust you. In fact you look very shifty to me. How do I know that you won't book up all sorts of stuff on my card". Ultimate is "OK. I'll stay here with you . You send your mate out to fill the bike. You *do* know how to fill a bike right? It's not like a car. Can be quite dangerous if you don't do it right, hot engine just under the tank and all".

[onearmedbandit]

Don't have too many if these 'prepay' systems down here in Christchurch. At least not at the srvos I go to.

[Karma]

Use Pay at pump, that'll do the job. Anywhere that requires me to prepay doesn't get my business, I'll just go elsewhere.

[Jantar]

I agree 100%.

I have only used pre-pay once, and that was late at night in an unfamiliar area and I simply didn't know where the next fuel was. The procedure was to go into the station, tell the attendant which pump and hand over my eftpos card to get the pump unlocked. The attendant held onto the card while I filled up.

Now here's something to try.... Tell your bank manager that you willingly hand over your eftpos/credit card to another person and then deliberately let it out of your sight for up to 5 minutes. See if the bank will still honour their policy of limiting any loss if your card goes missing.

If I can avoid pre-pay I will. Even if it means travelling miles out of my way and paying heaps more for fuel. I simply do not feel comfortable with handing over a card, that gives access to my accounts, to someone I don't know.

[bert_is_evil]

I've never come across a service station that does prepay, is that just an Auckland thing?

IN wellington when I was a security guard, I saw the cops having to go inside to ask for the pump to be released too!

I have never found a gas station that has only pre-pay - In fact I don't even think I have ever seen a prepay only pump.......maybe its a south auckland thing:dodge:

[Maha]

or is this a genuinely interesting thread?

Not really......its about petrol and how to pay for it.....i think?
I just put my $17.82 worth in the tank and go eftpos it....job done!

[Whynot]

only had to prepay once, wasnt a biggy i just got $20 cash out and gave it to the chap. Filled up and went back in for my $1.34 ish change

[ManDownUnder]

This chap moans more than I do.

Anyone else hear that music?? Mission Impossible theme isn't it?

[Jeaves]

i havent had an issue with prepay on my bike , both in south auckland and the city ,I usually give the attendent the "look" and they turn the pump on , ive never taken my helmet off when entering either.

[imdying]

Pretty colours :yes: Move to Christchurch, less cops, better roads, less traffic, and less (any(?) apart from Bogan Mobil late at weekends?) prepay petrol pumps.

Move to Chch? Why go backwards? I left Chch in 97 and my lungs have just finally cleared all the pollution out. Besides, I hate snow, sleet, frozen roads, boring straights, nor-westers and cambridge terrace poseurs.

Has Chch changed? Is there some valid reason to go backwards now?

[Steam]

Just a quick request from someone who used to be sole-charge and handled a lot of cash at night... please remove your helmet unless it's half-face or a flip up. It's fucking nerve-racking when someone walks in with a helmet on, it's just not worth the stress it gives the $9-an-hour wage-slaves behind the counter.

hear hear! (oh shit! did I just agree with you?)

anyway, THAT kind of security IS valid. We are a tad naieve in NZ but getting less so by the year. In most other countries you don't get in any building with a skid lid on and in trigger happy places like Manila, you're taking your life in your hands.

OK, now lets get back to hating each other OK?!

Now that your in Auckland you've got pollution , bro's , rain , fcuked roads , busy straights , westie's and ponsonby posers . :2thumbsup

[Coyote]

When I came across a prepay pump, I thought it was pretty good since I was paying by eftpos. The eftpos machine told me how much cash I had in my account before filling it. I've never overfilled and not been able to pay but I can't help but be paranoid.

However, I quickly turn bitter. Fucking hate them now. Just another way for the oil companies to make sure they squeeze every cent out of us (like having leaky pumps so you have to scrounge through your pockets for an extra 20 cents when you only planned to pay with a 10 dollar note)

busy straights? not where I live (Manukau) and i almost never use the motorways

Westies? Fuk yeah! Those bastards are UGLY!

Ponsonby posers are harmless. You know the type cause they're the same crowd that hang around Cambridge Tce: Hog riders with too much chrome checking their reflections in the mirror glass as they chat to their mates on their cellphone or Ducati 999 riders with the latest greatest leatherware to match and every accessory available..............and chicken strips an inch wide on both sides of both tyres!

At 2am, all stations are either closed or on pre-pay. It used to be the only time of day I could squeeze in a fill 'er up. Got quite good at guessing how much fuel I needed.

BP on Cranford from my experience doesn't have it. But otherwise, no, you're right. I tank up during the day and do my night rides to Akaroa and back on one tank, just.

holy crap! that's bloody awful mate but what's it got to do with prepay?

Om mane padme hum, om mane padme hum, om mane padme hum, om mane padme hum, om mane padme hum, om mane padme hum, om mane padme hum, om mane padme hum, om mane padme hum, om mane padme hum,


What it has got to do with prepay extends back to my original post saying I have had little experience of prepay, flying pony pointed out that I must fill up during normal hours as he has seen plenty, to which I replied that yes he is right, I fill up during the day or early evening, and my late night sprints to Akaroa and back can be done on one tank, hence why you won't find me being inconvienced by prepay at service stations in Christchurch.

Phew, covered that now.

There are a couple of Mobil petrol stations in east Auckland where you simply swipe your card and enter your pin number then fill up. you don't have to take off your lid or interact with a human being. You realise that petrol stations only make about 2c per litre profit at the pumps?

Ti Rakau Road (91 and 95) and Pakuranga Road (91 and 97.5) are the 2 in this neck of the woods.

That's where I go after dark for fuel. Before 8pm most fuel stations even round here aren't on prepay.

Yeah, those EFTPOS at pump stations are a great idea. If they want to save wages, that's the way to go.

Yeah mate, I hear ya - thought you're initial post was really concentrating on the issue of the inconvenience to the average biker. Nice to hear you voicing commendable socialist values on KB.

Another issue is that of generally low income in New Zealand - it forces many to be somewhat more frugal with their expenditure - this in turn obviously drives the competition to reduce the prices of all commodities. Petrol included.
