I am Roopak Krishna who is a resident of Bangalore from last 10 years. I have seen malpractices in Bangalore through out in petrol filling stations, where the staff who is interacting with the consumers are primarily involved.
I may be reiterating the story which be written by many here, but i have tgo, coz, i dont know what is the solution for this.
I entered Indian OIL pump at Mathikere (On road to Yeswanthpur). I was in my car which is Kerala Registered. Folks called me and made me come to two wheeler filling line. i told to fill my tank for Rs 1000. The fellow staff did not preset the figure, but he started filling. Immediately after he started, both of them called me from behind to ask, whether i am paying by card or cash. i understood the trick and stayed concentrated to the dial. They filled for Rs 10 and stopped. pretended to be having some problem with the machine again he resetted and started filling. After i finished i saw my cousin which was along with me in the same pump in different car had a similar bad experience, where he asked to fill full tank. He rushed to me immediately and told be to be cautious.
This is my 4 th experience with India oil pump alone. Getting into a petrol pump has become scary these days. This is too much. Why are we not able to regulate this. I madiwala petrol pump i faced the similar problem and i tried escalating this to the officials there. The response from all were heartening coz, all of the staff were a part of this game and at the end of the day take a share of this home.
