This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

What happens if you overpay and can't fill up the full amount?

I would assume it stops and then you pay after whatever it stopped at

He said you have to prepay tho

The few times I've prepaid cash in the US, you go to the attendant booth/inside the convenience store and they'll give you change.

Duh, good point.

Our gas pumps dont charge until the pump is stopped. The prepay is a ping on your account that basically reserves the funds after checking you have them, and then it let's you pump, and only withdraws what you use.
