it's saturday night and im at the 7-11 on 4 st NE filling up,
1. i insert my credit card and pull it out quickly like at most other pumps, but instead,
2. the pump tells me to leave the card inserted, but weirdly never tells me to enter a pin number.
as i am filling up,
3. the pump trigger doesn't 'pop', resulting in gas overflowing everywhere, so
4. i go into the store to ask if they have anything to clean it up with, and the clerk simply suggested paper towels, so that's what i used.
after adaquately soaking up the excess gas protuding out of my tank and on my car,
5. i leave, unknowingly leaving my card in the machine, possibly because im used to the pump actually telling me to retrieve my card.
i come back in an hour or so and retrieve my card from the same clerk for suggested the paper towels, and drive home to check my balance, only to find an extra $100 in my transactions list under 7-11 on top of the $37 i originally paid for my tank.
i've talked with a manager who is reviewing the tape, but how likely is it that i will be reimbursed the $100 of gas i didn't purchase?
