Few petrol stations would actually go out of their way to mislead customers in terms of pricing. They must display correct prices, inclusive of VAT, either on or near the item, in a way that makes it clear to the customer.

If the petrol station makes a genuine mistake and you find that the car wash is more expensive when you come to pay, the shop will not be obliged to sell at a lower price. If you do experience this, you can always change your mind about the purchase when you come to pay, but don’t expect to pay less!

All pricing should be clearly displayed to you before your purchase
If you experience any problems, raise them while you are still at the petrol station and take down the name of the person that you spoke with. If your problem is not resolved at the station, you can raise a complaint via resolver
