    Royal Dutch Shell Oil Company
    Marc A.

    I get gas here on occasion when passing through San Marcos. The location on the corner of Rancho Santa Fe and San Marcos Blvd is convenient for me when returning home (going south on RSF). I've used their car wash a couple times, too. It does about as good a job as those automatic car washes can do, but I have since switched to mostly hand washing my cars. I have noticed that this location is often one of the cheapest places to gas up in this part of town.

    Auto-shutoff fails causing half a tank of gas to spill on the ground.

    The gas prices here are always great specially if you pay with cash not card. The employees are always friendly.

Thought maybe something wrong with the card, so paid $40 in cash and filled the tank. Got home to find that they hard hit my debit card for $100.33, $100.25, and $100.37 and all were withdrawn from my bank. I called my bank to dispute, they told me I had to go to Arco and ask them to reverse. The manager/owner said that its not possible that that bank of america would even allow that, and i should work through B of A. I disputed the charge, they credited my account until they could investigate, but now they are taking back the money. Arco responded that it was through an automated pump (correct) and that the gas was dispensed. (incorrect) So Bank of America is now charging me over $300 for gas pumped at one station within a 5 minute timeframe. Nobody cares that I have a 16 gallon tank and even at $4 per gallon, the most I could have put in my tank would have been $64. So its IMPOSSIBLE to pump $100 once, let alone three times. This is complete BS and our family of 4 will NEVER use this station again. This is outright theft!!!

I rarely check in because its listed as San Diego Gas and Carwash instead of what it is...a Shell! I just can never find it when I try to check in so it's a pain in the butt. While I am a fan of this gas station, I'm noticing as it ages, the vacuums are breaking at an alarming rate. They either don't have any suction or stations are missing hoses completely. I often find myself going from station to station to find one that works. The car wash also sometimes smells really bad. I have to wonder if they reuse the water and if it's safe - the smell is unbearable sometimes when you go through. You can't escape it. I noticed they recently placed people at the end of the car wash to dry off the cars better....I LOVE this and willing to tip/pay extra for that extra level of service. While I'm a fan...I really hope they start fixing these things to keep me from going to a location closer to the house. If I'm just getting gas and getting a car wash, I can get that at Bressi but I regularly have to vacuum after a week of activities with the kiddo and 8/10, i'm able to do so here.

The monitor to scan code or pay from your car is just broken forever. The gate they have to manually lift. There are some sponges in the wash that aren't rotating. Today all the vacuums were down. 2. Smells like a sewer. It's disgusting. 3. Service is ALL over the place but usually ranges from bored, disinterested, or rude. Go somewhere else. It's not worth the hassle
