BREAKING: NEWS EG Group is imposing a £30 limit on purchases of fuel due to “unprecedented customer demand”.
As people have been panic buying fuel today, limits are no in force nationally for EG Group Petrol Stations. Demand at petrol stations around Blantyre has been higher than normal today with some queues forming in the afternoon. This breaking news tonight affects the new filling station at Blantyre Services across from the Technology Park. £30 limits are being advised to all customers with posters already put up on the fuel pumps.
The government has asked for calm, advising there are no shortages, but instead it is panic buying causing limits.
In a statement, the EG group said: “This is a company decision to ensure all our customers have a fair chance to refuel and to enable our sites to carry on running smoothly.
“We kindly ask everyone visiting our sites to treat our colleagues, supply chain partners and customers with respect during these very challenging times.
“All of EG Group’s UK sites remain open and operational to serve customers.”
389 Petrol Stations throughout the UK have been affected by this announcement.
