It is a gas station in Kremmling. I recently went there and put in less than $10 in gas in my car. A $75 charge showed up on my debit card that took FOUR days to come off. I use a credit card Every single week to purchase gas and this has never once happened until the Buggy Stop. I will NOT be going here ever again.

I experienced the same thing with Cate. I put around $20 in gas and $75 showed up several days in my account. Very weird to me.

Just like all the other comments. I purchased gas $15.21 and they said problem with credit card. $75 was charged to my card. I will call the BBB.

Filled up the Wrangler on the way back from a fishing trip, arrival at home noticed a email transaction alert of a $75 charge to my card from the Buggy Stop, the wrangler only took maybe $35 at 2.77 gallon. I put in a dispute on the charge with my credit card. I then called the store manager and he explained a sign on the pumps which I never saw as just a gas pump that if you used a credit card it is an automatic $75 charge and you will received a credit for the difference in about 2 days. I asked if the card secures if approved the charge just what is the sense of this practice. Rather surly response we have been doing this for 12 years. Told a dispute will be forthcoming from US Bank. Of course I will be watching for a credit showing up on my alerts, terrible business practice that must be used creatively for revenue floats. Never getting fuel there or likely anything in the store that is not a cash transaction. If no credit is forthcoming will contact the local LEO.

Follow up,,,,,,,called Wells Fargo and the Buggy Stop,,,,, apparently 75 bucks is the max fuel you can put in before a pump times out. So if their point of sale computer does not have instant access to your bank computer it assumes worse case where you will use 75 bucks of gas. When their bank puts thru the final charge, the 75 bucks comes off. Many restaurants use this type of ping for tips. Will post what happens in a few days

Conclusion on my two previous posts. Got my Wells Fargo statement today, the $75 dollar charge was rescinded and replaced with the actual amount I paid for gas. Apparently this may be common in rural areas without high speed internet. I have had the same issue when traveling in the Caribbean. So, Buggy Stop is NOT a rip-off or SCAM, we are just not used to getting instant info on account charges. The charge was temporary hold, then the adjustment made a few days later on their next regular banking day (Monday)

$75 thing happened to me yesterday. calling chase now. this is sketchy and something I've never experienced before, I've gotten gas in many rural areas and this has never been a thing and seems like a very unnecessary / sketchy business practice.

Class Action on July 02, 2020

I suggest a class action lawsuit to stop this practice. I, too, was scammed this weekend by these predators in Kremmling, Colorado. That's why the gas station at the other end of town, Kum n Go, is bustling. The locals know better than to go to the scam joint at The Mercantile.

$75 temp authorization charge? Never once have I seen this practice and I've lived in CO mountains for 25 years. There are no excuses other than poor management and unprogrammed credit terminals. If done on purpose, it's the result of untrusting store owners who think the world is against them. Don't give people like that your business.

Just happened to me yesterday (07/29/20), Put in about $21 of fuel, then the charge shows $75.00. Since this is a repeating charge ($75.00) it appears to be planned form of cyber theft.

Same happened to me as all the above posters. Stopped at the Merc for $25 worth of gas and found the $75 charge. Going to wait a couple days for it to clear but will then call the bank.
