This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

On 8/22 I visited a Sunoco gas station. I went into the station to pay by credit card. Behind the counter was a clerk, who was busy sorting reciepts, and a girl approx. ten years old. I presented my card and was surprised when the child took my card and preceeded to run the transaction thru the credit card machine. To add insult to injury, she made a mistake, and at that point the clerk interviened. It took her 10 minutes to rectify the problem. In the meantime the child continued to wait on customers. The clerk did not seem concerned in the least that this child was doing the transactions. I did not say anything to the clerk not wanting to upset the child Is it Sunoco's practice to emply children?

I just wittnessed a Citgo Tanker filling the tanks at a Sunoco Station. Is this normal? I thought Sunoco gas was a better grade than Citgo. Is this legal?

I took pictures with my camera phone. I am going to try sending them to Sunoco. They probably couldn't care less.

Good Day,

I agree and also have a complaint to file myself, using this forum because I can not find a separate complaint link.

I have been a Sonoco customer for the pass ten years. I do not drive but I buy coffee and other food stuff. There is a clerk at Sonoco #7550 ( merchant #h336420050001 ) who exhibits a negative attitude toward some customers. I stood back and watched her cheerfully greet mainly white customers with "have a nice day" while treating black males with indifferance and thinly vailed hostility. This person works the morning weekday shift. I am 56 years old and will not put up with this kind of foolishness. There are too many places to spend my money very close by. However I must say the rest of the employees are fantastic and treat and greet everyone the same.

my complaint is i got gas at 4am station #7474 in eastlake ohio vine street 44095. i used my debit card at the pump put my pin # in. pumped my gas and went home. got home and i went on line to check my bank balance. here sunoco debited my account for the amount i debited twice! i called to speak to manager and guess what not their pboblem. the manager told me she had no way of checking the records of customers! WHAT? how do they keep track of business. i called my bank they can file a charge of fraud but that means cancelling my debit card and waiting for a new one or i can go back to the station and try to get them to reverse the charges. i think my chances of getting sunoco to reverse charges are slim to none. it may be worth it to file a fraud charge and wait for a new debit card. thanks for listening. j.n. eastlake ohio former sunoco customer.

I've also noticed a young girl running around and pumping gas at a gas station on the New Jersey Turnpike in Woodbridge. I stop there daily and seen it often, she had to be at least 10 years and looked very scrawny and unkept, I felt sorry for the poor girl! One day I did ask the worker who the girl was and if it's okay for her to be running around a parking lot frequented by many truckers, I was coldly told to mind my own business. I drove to the side of the station and went inside asking who the manager was and was told that the guy named BJ that punped my gas was the store manager. When I went home I called in a complaint about the man, and also called The Division of Youth and Family Services (DYFS) and the labor board to see exactly what was going on there and suggest others do the same. Many may believe I done the wrong thing but I done it for the young girl, having a young daughter myself I don't see how any parent could allow their child to use a heavily populated truck stop as a playground. Soon after I seen the girl no long there and the manager gone too, I just hope they just didn't ship them off to another station.

I recently went out of my way to buy Sunoco gas (as I asways considered it Premium gas) on 2/14/10. The store location was 5420 Rte. 38 West Pennsauken, NJ 08109. I decided to pay in cash and presented $40 to the clerk and told him I wanted $30. He came back to verify that it was $30 and my wife restated it as well. He started pumping gas and the next thing I noticed he was at $32! I told him to stop and he continued to pump to $33. He definitely knew what the English word "stop" meant but continued to round to the next higher dollar. So much for the excuse of not knowing English! He was either Arab or Indian descent and spoke with a heavy accent. (I guess this was another job we had to recruit overseas for as no Americans could be found who are competent enough to pump gas!)

The pumper came back to the car with only $7 in change. I proceeded to argue the case that it was his fault that he did not stop the pump. Needless to say, there was no owner or manager available and everyone's name seemed to be Singh.

If this occurs several times a day. They can rack up a sizable profit margin on THEFT in the course of a year. I explained this to Sunoco HQ and no awaiting an answer. By the way, a police report was filed on the spot.

This station should be on the worst gas station list... My car broke down at the gas pump at 4:10pm thursday afternoon, head mechanic and the gas attendant were in the garage and saw my car smoking thru the hood and they just walked away. My husband came and asked to speak with the Mechanic and the gas attendant said, "oh he is done for today." All the bays were opened and he was in the shop tinkering around. All the car needed was a clamp and they couldn't help out. It gets worse, this little elderly woman drives in with a flat as I sit there waiting for the tow truck and they told her they couldn't do anything till tomorrow, my husband told the woman he would jack her car up and place her spare on if she wanted but she decided to walk home and leave the car. I will never go to that station again. The gas attendant was the most pathetic person I have ever come across in the customer service world. I should hope his mother, sister and daughter get better treatment from the world of customer service cause no one should ever be treated the way I was treated today. I will be writing to the owner as well and Mr. Gas Attendant told me the owner would be there tomorrow, I will call until I speak with him. Horrible experience.

6-8-2014 Customer Action Complaint-Towards Ian Borelli Jonathan Demers
Assistant Manager at
150 Pelham Street Methuen, MA 01844

To the Board of complaints concerning sunoco leadership accusations. My name is Jonathan Demers A concerned customer, who has deep concern towards Mr. Ian Borellis Leadership skills. Qouate I am a privately contracted Federal Employee for the Internal Revenue and am not a vaigrant.
Over the years I have been a conveniently well satisfied customer As far as shopping go's. But what Ive seen as a customer is sick. I am typing to tell you that I have been witnessing Mr. Borelli on numerous occasions Talk viciously towards people in ways that are cruel manored.
The only way I have factored this, is thrue various customers that have told me information on this subject. From what I witnessed All I can tell you is Mr. Borelli has been on numerous occasions been encouraging vagrancy towards the homless, not to mention playing sick minded games with Two individuals that are on sunoco police file. Such as first names like Bill and Ralph.
Mr. Borelli has been encouraging these people the customers to befreind them and has various ways of saying nasty jokes to me about them. As a former security officer, I am shocked in what I see in this mans leadership skills. At the station itself in my mind the homless are not people to be situated with in any such manner.
Playing im your freind but not really does not cut it when it comes to the homless. A few things come into situation such as if Mr. Borelli can play sick games with vagrancy like that what is he capable of next. I am a person that shops there due to the hours and the whole point is of this document is to let people know I dont want any more homless people being talked down about or hirt.
sincerly a loyal customer to the convienent location of your store Jonathan Demers.

I brought a pack of cigarettes from Sunoco gas station and they are extremely stale and dry.
I asked for a refund for the exchange of the cigarettes I had in my hand that was sold to me.
The Sunoco employee and manager refused my request. They claimed it wasn't their fault the cigarettes was stale. It was The Newport company fault.
I truly believe it is That Sunoco store fault selling cigarettes that sit on their shelves too long

I am still waiting for my suppressed grievances against the district manager Tom, store managers Rita & Rick, cashier Vallerie and legal advisor Micheko. The Sunoco employee compliance hotline workers have been telling me it will be here shortly since October 2012. If this is a copy-cat Penn State cover-up situation just let me know.

Today 11-18-2010, i went to this station to purchase something when personal said " a complaint" had been filed on me< the customer over a hug and a kiss at the pump. HER "client tell" was offended...i suggest this station needs new employees. How dare she? Then she tells the story to another co-worker with a customer in the store and making me look like a tramp. Since when is that acceptable? The hug and kiss happened 2 months ago.

Sunoco Gasoline Pumping Station are scamming people. They prices written on their tabloids are not true. I discovered that their sensors are installed incorrect. When I came to their manager she told that they will repair the system. Bu I am sure it was not mistake. They did it on purpose.

I am not wrong, people are out to get me. I have not been out of my house in six years, i ran out of cooking oil so I use gaseline to cook. I went for a refill and they cheated me at sunoco. I also believe the person working behind the counter is an Alien in disguise. Anyways people are out to get me. They are putting spy cameras in my cereal so now I can't leave the house for 17 years. I am unmarried and don't have kids because how am I supposed to know if they are really my children or robots created by NASA to spy on me.

I used my Emirates Bank - Master card at SUNOCO for buying petrol for my car. The Bill came upto Canadian Dollar $ 51.42
(51.42 * 5.5= AED 282.81).

However, on my text message alert it shows me that my account has been debited AED 436.40.

I would like to have an explanation as to why I was debited with AED 436.40? Please look into the matter and get back to me.

I have the receipt of my purchase as proof. Details of the same are mentioned below for your reference.

Went there to get a gas can filled for lawnmowers, gave attendant 2 dollar bills and 4 dollars in quarters which he refused to take, telling me I had to take quarters inside. I'm sorry but here in AMERICA - cash IS cash, not to mention he ignored me standing there for 10 min and I had my young son in the vehicle! What a bunch of ignorant TERRORISTS! Sorry, guess you can't buy a suicide bomb with quarters! I will NEVER waste my time at this station ever again, hope you go out of business and get deported back to whatever camel-loving country you came from- take a shower BTW- you smell.

I asked attendant for $20.00 regular...he came back with my card in hand no receipt, and stated he pumped $48.00, I complained, sating I had only 25 in the bank, he said it already went through. I then asked for a receipt to which he ran into the store and came out with a receipt saying I was charged $45.82. I will not be buying gas there any more. I hope he was not ripping people off all day stating one charge and pocketing the rest. I

This store is verging on being disgusting! There is a begger who is out in front of this store every day begging. I've talked to the store management about being accosted everytime I come to this station by "their" begger. The store management assured me that they would get rid of the begger! He still out there begging every day! I try to avoid this store whenever possible. I have talked to other customers, especially women, and they feel somewhat threatened by this agressive begger! Yes, I said agressve! I've even spoken to him, the begger, about his begging and he turns around and begs my wife! Can't you do something abut this begger? We do not go to Sunoco to be accostef by a begger! As I write this note he's probably there begging now!

I pulled up at 406 Nathan Dean Bypass in Rockmart, Ga to get gas. It took the pump. Literally 15 to pump $6 into my 2017 Chevy Spark. As I drove off and made it half way down the road my car stopped.I had to push it out of the middle of the road, and have it towed . My car was in good condition, until I left that gas station r

I stop at the Sunoco at 220 Partin Dr. Niceville Fl. every morning, The staff there is always friendly, always willing to go the extra mile to see that every customer has a great experience. One employee in particular named Missy always greets her customers by name making you feel very special

Sunoco gas station ; address 1521 Macon Rd Perry Ga 31069 The gas pump charged me 96 cents before pump actually started to PUMP gas. That means I lost $.96 So how much money is that gas station makes by ripping off customers?

Please do not ask digital questions that slow down the purchase process at the pump. References made to the Sunoco station in Charlestown Massachusetts they recently added a question about text it slows down the purchase process.

The station already asked for a ZIP Code in order to qualify credit card user.
