just pt a tener in, go to pay, and act like you lost your wallet, tell em you will go check your car, then go back saying you have lost your wallet and they will take your details and you can go back and pay later, i did this when i actually did leave my wallet at home one day in the cossie

Depends where you are davs2. The petrol station I worked at would allow any amount of fuel in ie £2.30. But some counties police say you have to pay before leaving a site. Else they take all your details (even thumbprint) and if you dont return, take you to court. Its in the hands of police forces now.

if you refuse to pay stating you have the money it then becomes a civil matter and not a criminal one like if you were to drive off without paying.
but the majority nowdays seem to be ok about it, i know my local bp are
