All they are responsible for doing is mailing out the payment. I can't hold them responsible for what the postal service does or doesn't do.
What happened to the concept of "The customer is always right."?
And like you, I will never buy gas from BP so long as I have another choice. I got in touch with someone in the legal department yesterday and am waiting for a call back today or tomorrow. If not, as stupid as it is, I will sue them and ask for attorney fees. I'm not going to just let them steal my money.
Thanks for the welcome back. I had a big murder trial a couple of weeks ago and have been catching up work since. BTW, my client had been in jail a year charged with murder, armed robbery, aggravated assualt, etc. He walked out of the court house with me a free man. NOT GUILTY of all charges.
It makes about as much sense as forming an opinion of someone based on a sarcastic post made by a member who knew the OP is a lawyer, and sticking to that opinion even after it was proven to be baseless.
Are you sure it wasn't Dale on the other line?
If you're an attorney, put together a case in your free time. Your overhead will be minimal and you will prove to the big oil companies, and large companies in general, that they cannot push the "little man" around. Add heavy publicity over this case to the mix and it's a sure thing - they'll likely settle but you will have made the public aware of their actions.
Bastards.
damn thats shitty, i just had an awesome experience w/ Gold's Gym today though, sorry to hear yours went bad w/ your long time bank. i recently moved to a different location and i'm closer to another Gold's location and so i asked if they could swap membership locations. they gave me the ok without charging me extra to upgrade membership and i told em thanks.i pay $21 a mth for one location w/ daycare included and whatever else it comes with. Tmobile also has awesome customer service. waived a couple of fees times i've asked and as a long time customer they were good to me. hopefully it all goes smooth man.
Had a similar thing happen when I had a Shell card.
The mailman delivered my mail to the wrong address and I got the bill late.
Got hit with a huge late fee and other BS charges. Called and tried to explain the situation, but they just kept saying "there's nothing we can do". What crap.
Turns out that Shell uses Chase as their credit card provider, so I can't really blame Shell for it. I canceled my Shell card and also canceled a different Chase card that I had. I want nothing to do with Chase ever again.
Find out what CC provider BP uses. Forget that's it's only $50. I would love to see you sue them, just on a matter of principle. These CC companies and banks deserve it for all the shit they put us through.

+1, I vote for this.
Draft a letter warning you are going to file suit and have it sent via certified mail. Show them they can't push people around. Also, only other way to get your credit back is to head back to the BP station and fill up a few more times.
:lol:
Back to the OP..take what happened to you, and apply it to a fleet account...one that runs about 7-9000.00 PER MONTH thru BP's coffers.
I hired a new office manager, and she paid one of the BP statements 14 days late, because of a computer error. They charged me an 85.00 late fee.
Keep in mind, my company has A+ credit thru D&B, and NONE of my accounts are paid late..so I explained what happened, and asked if they could waive the fee.
They were complete asshats..so I said.."enjoy the 85.00, you'll have an envelope with a check tomorrow morning for my outstanding balance, and my cut up cards. Cancel my account. Thanks".
I went and opened up a Shell account.
We actually went back and totaled up our gas purchases, and we had spent over 200 grand since opening the account.
I guess I took the long way of saying that BP doesn't give a damn about their customers.

Eh, I kinda think it was better before they deregulated. I still don't understand why we would follow California in such a thing. California's even thinking about going back. :shrug:
Yep. When I worked in the banking industry (and retail), that was the #1 priority. We were "shopped" and graded on how we took care of a customer. Not anymore.
Thanks for the link. That's pretty interesting, I do electrical design (among other things) and the location of the project determines who the provider is for electrical service.
My god that is stupid.....His actions, and fight for his cause could potentially bring change to the way the company operates. That change could have a direct favorable impact on how many BP customers? That is not counter productive at all unless, of course, you are self centered and only GAS about yourself. This attitude is a perfect example of why this country is so messed up.
very good job was he facing the death penalty? is your practice focused on criminal law? or was this a one time kinda thing for you? I have 7 more weeks of law school, I can't wait to take the bar and actually start to do some real work.
