Used to be my fav store since I moved to Belpre about a year ago. Always good gas prices and friendly people. BUT...
Recently I tried to buy gas on my business credit card and beer/chips on my personal debit card. After I paid for the gas, the clerk abruptly told me to step to the back of the line to pay for the beer. At first I thought he was joking. He said he was the Asst Mgr and this was Speedway's policy when the store was busy. They were NOT busy...only 2 customers behind me! I had prepaid for the gas, but left the beer at the register. While I was pumping my gas, the customer who was behind me in line walked up to me and told me she had intended to do 2 separate transactions too (food for her and cigs for her neighbor). After she saw how the Mgr "hassled" me, she decided not to patronize the store. She went to Kroger's across the street to make her purchases.
A few days later, I went to this Speedway again. The same Mgr told me to go to the back of the line again when tried to do 2 transactions on separate credit cards This time, I made him issue me a credit on my business card for the prepaid gas purchase, which he reluctantly did. I left the store. Won't go there again.
Apparently this store's new policy only allows 1 transaction at the register, then you have to go to the back of the line for a 2nd transaction. Avoid the drama. The Speedway on Farson Street and Kroger's does not have this policy.
I was gonna give a 1-star review, but since I previously had good service from other clerks, I wanted to be fair. read more
