"Thieves" "Sayona Gulf Station" on 100 North Main keyser Avenue
I am writing furiously about the Sayona thieves at the Gulf station on 100 North Main Keyser Avenue. I went and got gas ,I am on a fixed income put in $10.00 to get myself to work this week,needless to say they charged my debit twice for $10.00 and their printing machine is conveinently not working on the pump. They first rejected my debit card to start stealing. Isn't Gas High enough? I should have known better and went inside and get my copy but figured I would write down the amount myself and get moving. After checking my online Banking at home I realized they charged me double for a single purchase. I tried to look them up on the web and there is no phone number even on Google. I went in the store and demanded a copy of my receipt after already calling my bank to have the problem fixed. The clerk said he had no way to print it being that it had happened hours ago. While in the store complaining ,another gentleman had said the same had happened to him a week ago, and he was charged $37.50 for Gas he did not buy. I can not stress enough how important it is to keep all receipts in this day and age, for everything you buy with a debit card. What if my account would have become overdrawn and I was charged bank feas for the stealing of these people? My point to everyone is that you need to clear your transaction after pumping Gas and keep all of your receipts. If I had paid them cash would they have taken another $10.00 out of my wallett too? Debit cards are handy and with the dishonesty of a few bad eggs, I tell eveyone to watch out! I wonder how many others who where traveling through our town not from the area had their money stolen also? Or how many elderly or people, with a lot more money that do not watch every transaction closely?????? Beware of these kinds of thieves!!!!!

A gas station in Connellsville once did this to me - double charged a credit card for a fill up with my truck. After calling the credit card company and some regulatory office in Harrisburg (would have to look everything up again, that was a few years ago) they "profusely aplolgized for the clerical error" and cancelled the charge. Last time I went through there I noticed a Sheetz on the opposite corner and that station was out of business.

Thanks for the heads up....I never think twice about gas receipts...sometimes I don't even take them when they print out, but I will now that I've heard this story.

I also heard to push the clear button when your done pumping gas when you use your credit card. I never knew there was a clear button on there...but there really is one! I know people can make mistakes, but if someone else said this happened to them as well at the same place...I won't be buying my gas there!
