BP Rivonia (Rivonia Road) Water in Petrol

I filled my car up at BP Rivonia Road with 95 Unleaded at pump 1 and on my way home the car lost power and started jerking when driving it. I went to my mechanic and after a process of elimination he discovered water (or some other substance) in the fuel tank. I phoned the Petrol Station and they took down my details (and time of transaction, amount paid, vehicle registration number, contact details etc.). No one as contacted me yet. We had to empty the whole tank, flush the system replace all filters and refill the vehicle. I understand that it has been raining non stop for days but the least they could do is get back to me....

Good Morning Chrisan,


We're very sorry to hear about the bad experience you had at one of our BP sites.

We have tried calling you on the number provided, but all attempts have been unsuccessful as your phone rings to voicemail.

Could you perhaps provide us an alterative number we can reach you on.

Kind regards.

Hi there

If your number comes through as a no number my Truecaller will reject it. Do you have a secure email or direct number where I can send an alternative number?

Kind regards

Chrisan

A sample (2lt) of the fuel drained from the tank was given to the station as per their request. They indicated that Head Office requested it for testing.

its now been a month and I am really having a hard time making contact with anyone. Numerous emails have been sent and I have not had any responses. I have had phone calls but no follow-ups after that as promised.

Please advise.
