Gas station experts explained the reasons for this phenomenon. Fuel dispensers are designed to deliver a specific volume of fuel, not a fixed amount of money. When refueling 'for an amount', the system rounds the quantity of fuel, which often leads to overpayment for fuel.
Many Ukrainian gas stations allow under-delivery of fuel. Although small deviations are permissible, constant under-deliveries when paying a fixed amount can lead to financial losses for car owners.
Experts advise refueling a full tank or specifying a specific number of liters instead of an amount. This will help avoid overpayments and receive the exact volume of fuel.
