Yeah the US was a pain in the arse, like still in prehistoric times when it came to chip cards. Like, what do you mean I've got to sign.
And do they still do this bolloxs where you have to pay for your fuel before you fill, fooking shhite idea that was.
If you're paying cash you have to prepay. They say it's to prevent theft, but it's probably more likely so you will go in and buy something from their store while youre there.
If you're using a card, I don't think I've ever had to prepay (although they do place a sizable hold on your card before you start filling up)
My main complaint though is the pumps with video screens on them playing ads the whole time you're filling up. Once I learn a place has video screens I never go back to that location.
