    Oh yes. £7.50 for the fill, and a £20 surcharge for it being a surface cylinder which "has special filling requirements" wont be going back there again.
    Nothing wrong with the cylinder, it was about 3 months old from BestFittings.
    Was about to spend on a new Leatherman while i was in the shop but needless to say didn't.

    Stick to the quality £5 fills.

    Definitely sounds like one to avoid!

    In Maidstone.

    I challenged it, and he gave some crap about special filling requirements though didn't seem to know what he was talking about, and pointed out the register automatically added the charge (when her set the cylinder type filled to 'surface')
    So after a fruitless discussion i told him I knew he was talking bollocks, forget about the multitool i asked about and id get the tank filled elsewhere in future.

    Good for you, sounds like he was talking out of his rear end .

    What exact details did they give when you told them they were talking utter arse water ?

    As with incorrect info given at Post Offices, if you & I don't challenge it, we only have ourselves to blame.
