From: Noodle on 16 Jan 2010 09:06 Hello. What do the big chain Petrol Stations do when a person "drives off" without paying for petrol? I know they *CAN* do a lot of things - call Police, etc. But what *DO* they actually do? What are Caltex's policies in NSW? What are Mobil's policies in NSW? What are BP's policies in NSW? What are Shell's policies in NSW? What is the actual name of the Form they fill in to send to their HQ, verbatim? Do staff just "write it off" at the end of their shift? They are all different. Can someone who actually works at a petrol station please describe the details of their written policies? For instance, it is a fact that Caltex policy is to ignore the theft if the amount is $10 or less. What about their other competitors? Any other things like this? Also, what do NSW Police actually do about petrol theft below $50? Since 2007, NSW Police have been told to stop chasing shoplifters less than $300. So, do they also ignore petrol theft less than $300? Again - not what they *CAN* do, but they actually *do* do in practice, in the real world, please. Much appreciated, Noodle.

Apparently when I reply to you, I'm talking to myself....BUT, I know nothing of drive offs other than seeing a few and hearing attendants discuss having the number plate or a picture of the vehicle. What they do with it, I have no idea. OzOne of the three twins I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace.

Thanks, now I'll sit back and be entertained as your credibility is again pulled apart, even if you are telling the truth. |
