(snip) I am not sure where you are but here in SoCal, ARCO has always
charged a service charge when you use an ATM... Doc (end snip)

 

I understand your point about arco's prices et al, but have to
respectfully disagree re:  atm pump charges...I've been in orange county
for 16 of the past 21 years, most recently since '98 to
present...yesterday was the 1st time I've ever paid an atm (or any cc)
fee at a gas station, arco or otherwise...on the other hand, i think you
hit it on the head re:  the idea that stations would prefer to have you
sign up to use THEIR "no fee" charge card as a) we've all been
conditioned to use cc's at the pump anyway, and b) this strategy serves
to ensure repeat business...

 

Btw, it's pretty sad when I get excited about paying "only" $2.23 a
gallon!

 

Vairy best,

 

rod
