• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Wake up with a bang.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: Hey, wake up!
• 0:03
  Speaker 3: Anele and the Club on 947.
• 0:06
  Speaker 4: Speaking of witchcraft, this story upset me to no end
• 0:12
  Speaker 4: and it is happening more and more. And the thing is,
• 0:15
  Speaker 4: it's happening to the nicest people in society. The nicest
• 0:19
  Speaker 4: people in the world are petrol attendants, guys.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: You can't argue that.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: They're so friendly. They're always helping you.
• 0:26
  Speaker 4: Bro, anybody who's had a flat tire within a kilometer
• 0:30
  Speaker 4: of a petrol station, those petrol attendants will run.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Push your car, change your tire, help you out. So
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: what's happening more.
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: And more is that you guys are driving to petrol
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: stations And then you're filling up your car and then
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: you're driving off without paying, thinking that, oh, no, the
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: rich petrol station owner is going to foot that bill.
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: But that's not the case. The petrol attendant is liable
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: for the bill that you leave.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Now, we all know here.
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: Is as much as they're the nicest people in the world,
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: they're also the lowest paid.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they get paid very little.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: So what are you doing? Why are you scum? Why
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: are you being jealous?
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: Was there a specific story of someone driving off?
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: Yes, in Waterfall, a.
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: Petrol attendant allegedly facing a thousand rands bill after a
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: customer filled up.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: And I like this allegedly, allegedly. There's nothing allegedly about this.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: We watched the video.
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: This man filled up and then whilst the petrol attendant
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: was like finishing, finishing, finishing, off he went.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: And it's always an atheist.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's terrible.
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: I mean, look, I think it's going to be happening
• 1:28
  Speaker 5: more and more because fuel is getting so expensive.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: But you can't steal. It's stealing.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: No, you can't do that. It's just wrong. It's absolutely wrong.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: You are literally... Yes, firstly, stealing. But how do you
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: think it's okay?
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Because nine times out of ten, the petrol attendant is
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: held liable for you not paying.
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: Registration number LV50KFGP. Registration number of this car was LV50KFGP.
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: Filled up for a thousand rand at a petrol station
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: in Waterfall City.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Left the attendant high and dry. Now he has to
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: pay the spell.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: That's terrible.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: So the first thing is, I wanted us to please,
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: can we give this man the thousand rand?
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: I'm sure we can club together for that.
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: Ryan, can we amongst us? Don't worry, Joe, but you
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: don't have to call in on this one. I think
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: we'll handle it as a team. We'll just eat less
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: cheese grillers for the week. Yeah.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: And then we'll make sure that we pay that bill
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: for him.
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: But the story here is petrol stations and to you,
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: what do you think petrol stations should be doing?
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: To get around this?
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: What systems must they, because I was looking at the
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: comments on this post and people are like, no, you
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: must take their keys when people are pouring petrol.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: I think that's just going to open another can of
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: worms because now you, why do I want my keys?
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: It's a safety issue. What if I must drive off?
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: You know, what systems can petrol attendants and petrol stations
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: implement to make sure that this doesn't happen again? Because
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: to Frankie's point, it's going to happen. Whether we like
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: it or not, it's going to happen.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: More and more.
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: I think it's terrible that we have to have a
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: conversation about this. Like, this should not be happening and
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: now we've got to try and stop it, right? I
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: always feel like Making rules for an exception. Because this
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: should not be happening, but now we're going to make
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: a rule for it. Overseas, often you swipe your card first.
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: So you swipe your card and then you pour.
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: But what happens if I am pouring a full tank
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: and we don't know how much it's going to cost?
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: Well, you better have enough money on your card. You
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: put in how much you want to put in.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Oh, okay.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: So if I know that my full tank is 2,000 rand,
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: I'll say 2,000 rand and.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Only swipe that. And then that unlocks that amount of
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: fuel for you.
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: Does that require a specific system or?
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it does.
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: Because right now, you can only really pay afterwards. Because
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: the petrol tank sends a signal to the computer inside
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: the petrol station.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: That's why the petrol station will know, tank two, 2,000.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think it'll work here. We don't have
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: that system.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: I think we've got a system in terms of the,
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: like I've seen it in a garage where you say
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: I'll have 200 and the guy will key in 200
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: into the machine so that the pump stops itself. So
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: I'm sure it wouldn't, I mean, in this day and age, guys,
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: AI apps, the kids are so smart. It's probably like
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: one little configuration on the machine to say you have
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: to pay first and then it unlocks.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Because they already got it.
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: They already got that you can set the amount and
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: the attendant fills it.
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: 011-8838-947.
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: Send us a voice note 084-0000-947.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: It's going to.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: Happen more and more because people see that they can
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: get away with it. And it doesn't help that petrol
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: stations have got cameras because we've already seen that people
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: are rolling around in fake license plates.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the issue.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: They plan for it.
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: Nobody decides whilst the petrol is being poured that I'm
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: going to run off.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: They plan for it.
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: They change the license plates so they can get a
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: full tank and go away.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: What do you think should be happening?
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: How?
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: How?
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Give us your expertise.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: Use your brain. Let's all clap together now. How can
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: we fix this?
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Because there is no ways, there is no ways we
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: are going to allow this one to happen.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry. That's terrible.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: I really think this is.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: The last one in the country that should happen to
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: this guy. This is not fair. Call us, text us,
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: WhatsApp us, whatever it is, talk to us.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: People must pay for the fuel before it gets poured
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: into the vehicle.
• 5:12
  Speaker 7: A full tank?
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: No.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: What's, how much you want? A thousand rand, 1.2, pay it,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: we fill.
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: It, you go.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: There's not a person that doesn't know how much.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Petrol or diesel their car takes anyway.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: So just pay ahead.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: If they, you know, employ security, perhaps at the entrances
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: or exits.
• 5:30
  Speaker 8: What a horrible, horrible person to do that to somebody
• 5:34
  Speaker 8: who probably doesn't even have their own car.
• 5:37
  Speaker 6: Can you think these petrol stations should have gates?
• 5:41
  Speaker 8: I think it should be normal to pay before pouring
• 5:44
  Speaker 8: petrol or they should lay down those spiky strip.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Oh, take out your tires and you.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Now I'm in. Now, you see, now I'm in.
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: Vin, put your microphone on there.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: Firstly Vint well done on rocking Marble Circus this past
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: weekend thank you you were something over there and then
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: secondly you were saying something around the payments.
• 6:13
  Speaker 9: Yeah so I've got a friend in the US which
• 6:15
  Speaker 9: says when he goes to the garage to put in
• 6:18
  Speaker 9: fuel you swipe your card first which then what it
• 6:21
  Speaker 9: does is it pre-authorizes your card for transaction and then
• 6:25
  Speaker 9: it puts in the fuel, you put your fuel in
• 6:26
  Speaker 9: the car, and then it subtracts that amount after you've
• 6:29
  Speaker 9: put in the fuel. So you don't have to put
• 6:31
  Speaker 9: in a specific amount. You just swipe your card, pre-authorize,
• 6:34
  Speaker 9: put in the fuel, and then it does that. Oh,
• 6:36
  Speaker 9: it checks for you.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: So it knows, eh? We can only pour $ 1, 000 for you.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Almost like when you're checking into a hotel.
• 6:42
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: And you know they have that hold on it in
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: case you have any extras.
• 6:45
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: So I suppose that's the system, right?
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: Okay, maybe that's a solution.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Oliver, you are in Winchester Hills.
• 6:51
  Speaker 7: Good morning.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: Good morning.
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: Morning, Anil and the club.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Morning, Oliver. How are you?
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: Fine, and yourself?
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: We are great. What's your solution on this?
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: Anil and the club, I think the solution here is
• 7:04
  Speaker 6: when you want to put 300 bucks in your car,
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: the best way is you must hand the money first
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: to the attendant. And then you get the gift of
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: service while the money is in his pocket. The issue
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: is you're on the full tank. Because the full tank,
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: you don't know basically how much petrol you're going to
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: take in your car on the full tank.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: Because I heard the one guy in the voice note
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: saying no one in the world doesn't know how much their.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: Full tank costs.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: But let's say I'm on a quarter tank and I
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: want to fill it up.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't know.
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: But you don't know how much petrol your car is
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: going to take to fill up. So the best way
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: here is the petrol attendant must hold your key while
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: he's helping you.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but now it's high.
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: And as soon as you're done, you'll know how much
• 7:54
  Speaker 6: amount of money you must pay him. Because these people
• 7:56
  Speaker 6: who are running away, they're using false number plates.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 7:59
  Speaker 6: Yeah, they're not... They're not using the normal number plate
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: of the car. They're using a false number plate.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: Because they've figured out that other criminals who are doing
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: other crimes, like this kidnapping search that we're seeing in
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: the country all of a sudden, those guys, they're using
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: false number plates. And criminals can see that. Like, oh,
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: because there is no law. There's no law enforcement that
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: does roadblocks to check false number plates.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all the time.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: You get away with it. That's the point, right?
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: People are getting away with it.
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: Even if you see a roadblock, Frankie, up ahead, right?
• 8:33
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: And you've got false number plates, you can just park
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: on the side quickly and change them back.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: To the real ones.
• 8:37
  Speaker 9: Oh, yeah.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: And then when it's time to go and do your
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: heinous crimes like kidnap women in South Africa, then you
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: put the number plates back on, the ones that you
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: need to get away with things. So we're not going
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: to do the number plate one. I don't know about
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: the keys one.
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: Well, that's what I was going to ask, right? So
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: think about yourself. If you had to stop and give
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: the petrol attendant your keys, would you do that?
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: No, I don't know. And I'll tell you why.
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: I mean, another thing that we're seeing happening at petrol
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: stations is phone snatching.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: So now you're scared someone's going to snatch the key.
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: Like, snatching my keys, the car is yours, eh? It's
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: almost like, you know how you get taught in broadcast school,
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: never lose the microphone.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: So if you're interviewing somebody on the street, don't let
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: them take the microphone.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: You must hold the microphone because you must maintain that control.
• 9:23
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: I think giving your keys away, hey, yeah, yeah.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: I think a lot of people would feel uncomfortable with that.
• 9:28
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: And also, now the petrol attendant misplaces them.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: Now we're looking for keys. Hey, man, hey.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Or drops it down the drain.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Or they can imprint them.
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: Oh, yes, yes.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Copy.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: I don't know. This is the thing. I don't know.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know. It's like your credit card. Don't lose
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: sight of it. Christiana, you and Kyle Army. Good morning.
• 9:48
  Speaker 7: Good morning, Anelia and the team. How are you?
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Good morning.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: We are upset, Christiana.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: This really, really upsets me that people are doing this
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: to petrol attendants.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: They're the nicest people.
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: In the world.
• 9:58
  Speaker 7: 100%.
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: 100%.
• 10:00
  Speaker 7: I agree with you. So my thoughts are, why can't
• 10:03
  Speaker 7: we do it on a prepaid system, just like we
• 10:06
  Speaker 7: do our airtime? So get to the petrol station. Say
• 10:11
  Speaker 7: I want 500 rand petrol. They swap your card or
• 10:14
  Speaker 7: take the cash and then only load the petrol.
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: Oh.
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: Like you have a special sassle wallet, and then you
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: just put money there every month, and you know you
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: can use that.
• 10:23
  Speaker 7: Correct. 100%.
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: Yo, guys, but you know how people are hustling for money?
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: Like people are borrowing money from people for like, so
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: you say, let's say you know you're going to the
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: petrol station in the next 10 minutes, then you must
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: load it.
• 10:35
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Okay. Onto your card before you get there. So it's
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: not like a pre-pre-pre there.
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: Christiana, do you know if this system is used anywhere
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: else in the world?
• 10:45
  Speaker 7: I think maybe overseas. I know in my country, in Greece,
• 10:49
  Speaker 7: that happens a lot. So you pay before you pour.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 10:55
  Speaker 8: Oh.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Pay before you pour.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: You pay.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: She got a load.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: And that's such a nice payoff line. Pay before you pour.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: Lovely country, by the way, Christiana.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: I was in Mykonos earlier this year and I don't
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: understand what Greeks are doing here. I would be on
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: that side.
• 11:11
  Speaker 7: You know I'm telling you.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: Babe, stunning country. Well done to yourself, guys.
• 11:16
  Speaker 8: Thank you.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Give yourselves a round of applause. Wapa to that. My
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: mom is here the entire time I was in Greece.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: I was like, why is anybody on the other side?
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Why did people leave here?
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: I would be here the whole time. What do you mean?
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: And black coffee comes to you.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: He's your neighbour.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: He's your neighbour. What's wrong with you people?
