Tesco Pay-at-Pump - takes £1 from your account without you knowing...!

I needed to fill up with diesel today, (baring in mind I hate shopping at any supermarket) I drove past Tesco and noticed that their diesel was 109.9/l

.... Three hundred yards down the road was a BP station with diesel at 117.9/l, shamefully I turned around and went to Tesco.

Sorry E-L-G I don't follow you here, could you explain how this works please

They could check it just as easily by putting £1 into your account. I've bought fuel at Tesco when I had a good discount, paid with card and they never took any money to authenticate my account.

Here in the states a temporary charge is added to your debit card in order to authentic the card against fraud. Usually the funds are returned to the card holders account within 24 hours. This is what I have been told by gas station attendent's in the know.

Exactly the same fuel I expect. Many times I have seen a BP tanker filling Tesco tanks. Seen BP there almost as often as Tesco tankers. BP plastered over the nozzles so I would say BP fuel in our local Tesco.

Never had a problem with pay at the pumps and I always check my credit card statements.

Hi

 

Had pay at the pump with your CC in France for years, dosnt charge extra here, other than sterling to Euro transaction charge by bank if you pay with a UK card.

had the £1 thing twice around xmas and new year from local tesco - which was interesting as both times i had taken nearer £70 of fuel so i watched for a week or so and then the proper amount was taken - minus the £1
