Beware the truck pumps in LeClerc or really glad we carry more than one card

In Spain pulled into truck bay for an attendant to come running out to I thought say couldn’t use them as nozzles too big. That too was automated. Maybe he was telling me the amount of deposit was too big. Avoided them after that.

On our recent trip, payment was declined at a couple of different fuel stations. In each case, the receipt said that the requested payment of 1100 euros was declined. The first time it happened, we assumed that the amount was a mistake and that the request should have been for 110 euros. When it happened again, we realised that we were using the pump for lorries; we assume that those pumps request a much larger payment than the car pumps.

We had issues on the Peage with truck pumps not accepting our cards, so resorted to the car pumps which worked fine. Only problem there was on three sites, there was nowhere to park the 8meter and no way to get to the truck parking from the car parking, so we could not stop there for a cuppa or a bite to eat.
Ended up doing separate fuel and nibble stops.
