Has anyone encountered a situation like this: went to the gas station on Sunday and filled up 38 euros. The credit card was charged 101 euros. The gas pump could not print the receipt and there were no staff members. Don't know what to do. Thank you ?

I was also deducted 101. The bank said it was a preset deduction, and finally saw the settlement between the gas station and the bank.

Don't worry, I've been in this situation before, it's okay.

Pre-authorize 101. As long as you don't add more than 101, you can add it. It will stop at 101. Don't worry.

Is 101 euros a pre-authorization?

It's pre-authorization, and the payment will only be deducted after the fuel is actually settled. Gas stations are all like this, so don't worry. No problem, you can call the bank customer service to confirm, they are all pre-authorization. You're welcome.

Actually, a liter of gasoline costs about 10 RMB, and you can pay by cash at the self-service pump, enter the fuel number, and then pump the fuel. Generally, the cheapest type of gasoline, 95, is enough. It is best to park the car on the left side of the fuel gun for easy refueling. If for some reason you do not press the fuel delivery handle in time after picking up the fuel gun, you can get a cancellation voucher at the self-service pump, which has a password input machine. You can choose to refuel or get a refund. There is no special difference in the amount paid by credit card and cash, but some gas stations on remote national highways may lock the self-service pump at night, making it unusable. If you need to use it, you need to enter the password to unlock it.

This is pre-authorization, no problem.
