Adver readers have reacted to Sainsbury’s joining Tesco in charging drivers who use Pay at Pump machines a £100 deposit fee to use the service.
Drivers who fill up their car at the supermarket forecourts could see a temporary deposit of £100 taken from their bank accounts.
The deposit will be taken out of drivers’ accounts the moment they put their card into the machine.
The petrol station will then calculate the correct fee after the car has been refuelled, and the money will then be refunded back on the payment card, minus what is owed for the petrol.

A BUSINESSMAN with entrepreneurship in his blood is opening a fudge shop on a booming high street. Thomas Griffiths, 31, and his girlfriend Mariah Mcentee have set up The Finest Fudge Company on Great Harwood’s Queen Street which has a growing reputation for independent food traders. Close to the new Finch Bakery, the shop, which will be fronted by Mariah, will sell their homemade fudge alongside ice cream from Longridge and donuts from Blackburn. Tom, who is the great-grandson of Blackburn shoe emporium legend Tommy Ball, said: “Living round here, I have got to know Great Harwood and I thought that it looks like a little foodie paradise – let’s get in there.
