    Its really hard to see whose card they are swiping, SO make sure you always ask for a receipt when ever you buy petrol, It should usually have your shell drivers club card number on the reciept.

    If the number on the recipet doesnt match the number on your card, Report him or just confront him and tell him that your going to report.

    He should probably get scared, so tell him thast you can spare his job if for exchange he gives free petrol paid from his pocket for a few months or so.

    It should work
  • this used to happen in my local boots store, this woman had her own card by the till and frequently stuck it in, she was reported and sacked.

    That would be illegal and lead you into worse trouble than the attendant could possibly get into.

    I would report it first to his manager and then the Police. no matter how small, how trivial or the reasons behind it. THEFT IS THEFT!

    Ask him for some cigarettes (or something behind him) and when he's not looking swap his loyalty card with your own.

    Its theft and shouldn't be excempt. Tell shell! Shout it outside the shell station.

    I would be !!!!ed off even if i was not going to use the points, They where for me not him! Lol.

    Report him to his manager (I am sure he is in on it too and will cancel the cards before you get to shell lol)

    I like pound's idea!
