I went to two different pumps with broken credit card readers. Thurs pump seemed to be working but couldn't read my Chevron/Texaco card. On the third swipe, it told me to see the cashier. The cashier refused to let me full,up my tank. I told him the card readers are all broken n to turn on the pump. He proceeded to tell Me how he works for Terrible Herbst n not Chevron so he is unable to do that. I needed to authorize an ammount. If I can run my card at the pump with our a predetermined amount...you can to. Do your job!
