Some fuel stations cited for shortchanging their customers have started running promotions to compensate the affacted customers following directive by Chamber of Petroleum Consumers Ghana, (COPEC) 

Some ten fuel stations in the Greater Accra and parts of the Central Region have been found to be under-delivering the right quantities of fuel to customers.

The stations which were found to be under-delivering are the Shell station at the Motorway Extension; Total at McCarthyHill in Accra; GOIL at Mile 11; Frimps Oil at Tetegu junction; GOIL at Galilea; and Frimps Oil on Spintex Road.
The rest are Glory Oil on the Spintex Road; Allied Oil at Sakaman; Shell at Amanfrom West and Goodness Energy at Kasoa.
Two other companies, Galaxy Oil, Spintex Road and Agapet, Spintex Road were found to have broken the GSA seal without permission.

GOIL which is now giving 25 percent free fuel on any quantity of fuel bought at their Galilea and Mile 11 stations in Accra, the two stations cited for cheating their customers.

A visit to some of the stations by officials of the Chamber of Petroleum Consumers Ghana (COPEC) revealed the stations were running promotions to compensate their customers.

Meanwhile, COPEC has given the other OMCs and fuel stations up to the end of the month to compensate their customers or face action.

Some of the customers who spoke to Citi FM said they are happy the fuel stations have taken the step to compensate them after cheating them.

"I'm okay I just received an extra one gallon free on top of what I just bought that's a good initiative and I'm happy for that."

"We have laws in the country and enforcement agencies are supposed to be on guard to be monitoring all these things so that customers will get value for whatever they patronise," a customer added.

The Ghana Standards Authority last month revealed that ten fuel stations all in Accra under deliver fuel to consumers.

The ten affected stations were all fined GHS5,000.
