ESSO MFG Boscombe

I will advise not to refuel your vehicle at this service station. Their standards are very poor, is messy, the pumps are very old and not well serviced; pumps are not well calibrated either and they will deliver the wrong amount of fuel but you will end up paying for the indicated amount though there's less in your tank or nothing at all. I had a very annoying experience. I payed for my fuel, jumped back in my car, turned the ignition on and to my surprise the fuel indicator hadn't moved. I checked with the car's computer, opened a few menus to compare the amount of miles I could've driven before refuelling and "after refuelling". Same! No fuel had been pumped in the tank! But I was charged anyway. I got back inside to talk to the sales clerk, which proved to be a bit complicated due to his lack of education and knowledge of the English language, I must admit English is not my mother tongue but come on! certain standards would be appreciated when recruiting staff, please. I couldn't go anywhere with this "gentleman" (sales clerk) who became very amused with the situation, I kindly asked for the pump to be checked, and he just laughed and told me the problem was my car not the pump. There is some shady business going on with these pumps. It is unfortunate that I have to give this place one star, it deserves none. I know one thing for certain, I will never refuel my car here again or any other @Esso_GB station.

Staff are very polite and friendly

Always friendly

Clean fuel

the tire pressure compressor stole 2 pounds from me, and the workers do not speak English.
