You have to download a complaint form, fill it out and looks like you have to mail or fax it in.

$4.35 at Citgo today. Up $.70 from 2 days ago. What a scam.

The amount you are charged extra surely is not worth the time to fill out and mail a form in.

CNN.com has an interesting article on gas prices which you can read here. Annalist are predicting a base line of about $4.50 per gallon with some areas going up to $6. They do feel however, that this will not have a lasting effect on prices.

I don't know what local dealers are paying for their gas, but if it is indeed the nearly $5 wholesale price it might be awhile for them to go through it and then hopefully prices will go down again.
