[Resolved]  Bharat Petroleum Advaita Petrol Bunk, Bangalore — Attempt to cheat, Consumers beware

I have faced similar problems in this particular bunk in other bunks as well.

Advitha Pertol Bunk, BTM Layout, Bangalore — Wrong meter reading for Petrol Bunk

The other day i went for 1litre of petrol to be pumped to a 1litre bottle, they denied it saying they don't pump into bottles. This makes me skeptical about their meter reading.

Does 1litre meter reading in Advitha Petrol Bunk is actually equal to 1litre petrol in quantity. I seriously doubt it.

I don't know whom to complain this about, so posting it here. Hope the concerned department takes a look at it and will take necessary action.

I agree on this 100%. Although this is a common pratice in bangalore the worst is Advaita Petrol Bunk, on 16 th main road, BTM layout. I know several other peoples facing the same problem including me. I have stopped going there from last 6months for this.

Faced same harassment at Bharat Petroleum bunk at Sanjay nagar.

Hi I Completely agree with the above comments

The Same things happened with me many a times, The Scenario i can explain like

I went to the petrol bunk and i asked operator to fill the pertol of Rs 200 and gave my Credit card to him.
So he called to another guy to swap the card. That guy put me in a unnessary discussion like

"Sir Credit card or debit card, then, Sir pin number, Sir HSBC card etc",

in the same moment the guy who was filling the petrol just enter Rs 50 Manually in the meter and actually no pertol was filled, so when i again told him that i want petrlo of Rs 200 he filled the pertol of Rs 150 again,

When i catched in Red handed he accepted his cheat and filled again the Petrol of Rs 50,

So i just want to say beware from this pertol bunk they are openly doing this kind of cheating every day with n numbers of people,

Hi I also faced the same problem many times in this Petrol bunk.

When i was not aware of this kind of cheat i lost Rs 50 in the above scenario n numbers of times

but when last time i caught them red handed, I Complaint to their manager and their names are

1. Vinayak ( The guy who was their manager, and was indeed in this cheat )
2. Lokash ( The guy who filled the petrol)
3. Shashi ( Card swapper )

Today it happened to me, same trap..the cashier distract me talking about some BPC card and the other guy says he already filled Rs.120 worth, though I have asked him to fill for 500 Rs..

I noticed my talk was not to the mark that i usually see for 500Rs. worth petrol, I confronted the manager and he acted as if there was a mistake and when i pressed hard, they filled the Rs.120 worth again.

Please be aware of this kind of cheating..

For those who are interested in investigating further..here are the details of my transaction:
Location: SRI SAI BALAJI & CO, No.67/68 RMV 2nd stage, SanjayNagar Main Road, Bangalore - 94..ph23518495..My bill #6113 and TIN:[protected], Dated 6/9/09

Thanks

Also, DEVE GOWDA Petrol Bunk near Banashankari/Kamakya is the worst bunk with worst service. I think they hire professional thieves as attendants, they try to divert your attention and then put less fuel vs what you pay for. Also dear bangaloreans please ensure ZERO on the CORRECT meter. The fuel bunk machine usually has two pipes/meter. These thieves show you the wrong meter with the zero since you cannot see which pipe leads to which meter. It happened to me. However, since I got down from my car, I was able to notice. Please make sure you roll all the windows of your car and get down the car with the key and stay there till the tank is full.

SHELL is better but now they did a ridiculous increase in fuel price. 73/Litre of petrol [censored] off, I'm searching for a good alternative.

I got cheated today in the same way. Asked to fill diesel for 300. One guy starts filling while another guy comes for cash. I gave hsbc card. he says - madam hsbc machine is cancelled, give me hdfc card. i said i dont have hdfc card n took my purse to get cash. within that, the one who was filling is already finished, and the meter shows 300. When i switched on the ignition, the fuel indicator which was near empty had just moved 1 point for 6.5 litres. He had filled only 3-4 litres for sure.
