Another similar incident happened at Hinjewadi petrol pump. Looks like this is common trick. One question is --- All these guys are telling me -> They HAVE to reset the counter if they stop in between filling the fuel. Is this true? | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() My wife filled fuel in the pump opp Sagar Apollo hospital, Bannerghatta Rd yesterday. She got down and asked him to fill X amount. She stood there as he was filling. Guy asks her 'Cash or Card'. She answers 'Card'. Mid way he asks her to get the card. Wifey does not budge. She asks him to fill the full amount and then do the talking of credit cards and petro cards and assured him that she would stay half an hour to listen to their schemes. He got the idea that she was well informed of the short fuelling tricks at pumps. After filling, she takes the CC out of her purse and flashes it Bond style. Gets the Customers copy, checks it and leaves. Look on the attendants face..--> PRICELESS. By the way, OT, I plan to do a tank full from a Shell bunk this coming weekend. I know only 2 Bunks, 1) On the way to Electronic City (LHS) from BTM to Elec city. 2) Between City market and Bangy University. Are these still operational or have they shutdown. An update would be useful and appreciated. Thanks a million! |

| ![]() Intresting tricks! In Poona, I have never experienced any such tricks at the select pumps I visit (I'v almost never filled up from anywhere else) - BP COCO opp RTO, Servo on Karve Road, Kulkarni on Laxmi Rd. & Shell on Mulshi Rd (stopped going there because of their price). Does anyone have any experience with the 2 HP pumps in hinjewadi? I'm more concerned with the fuel quality and milage. Has anybody tested? The good thing is that these pumps sell at less than what you have to pay at pumps within Poona city. |

| ![]() As someone has already asked before, can we put in some of the good bunks information for others to benefit. I would like to know a reliable one near bannerghatta road or near cunnigham road.. Note :- the petrol bunk after Jayadeva flyover (towards MG Road, after sobha magnolia) does the same thing of not able to hear correctly the amount required and doing the fuelling twice.. Avoid them.. |

| ![]() @Guna & Dadu: Do you mean Cauvery petrol pump? It comes with high recommendation I thought. |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Nitin, they are talking of South End circle - the bunk at the circle itself (close to elephant rock). The one you are talking about is opposite Lalbagh West Gate. |
