Arco AM/PM

This is the SECOND incident this week I had a horrific Bad experience dealing with this ARCO’ gas station’ cashier. He is a male brunette, approximately 20+ years of age with a really bad attitude towards customers! He’s Rude & obnoxious, yelling at customers using profanity towards them including myself as s female patron.
I gave this cashier a $ 50 bill and asked for $ 10 unleaded regular (pump 11 at 9:05pm Incase The owner is reading this).
This male cashier proceeded to give me back $ 20 in change hoping I wouldn’t notice. He shut the cashier door quickly to help another customer in line until we both stated to him; «excuse me you need to give back $ 40.00 in change. He acted as if nothing was wrong, threw the change back in my face.
When I went to the pump 11 this cashier, SHUT OFF pump Before I could pump for gas. When I went into the ARCO mart to confront him, he shouted out at me in front of customers «I refuse to give you service» to cover up what he had just done, and make it look like «I» was the issue. This ARCO cashier is a piece of work & appears to have psychological issues.
ATTN: to this ARCO gas station owner & Manager: this incident occurred tonite between 9 AM to 9:10 PM on April 20, 2016 at pump 11.
I am a women in my 50s and have to say I have never ever in my entire life experienced what I have tonite at ANY gas station. I will never be a patron at your gas station again in the future and encourage mutual friends not to go there.
I took my chances this evening that a different ARCO’ cashier might be working tonight. Unfortunately, this was not the case.
I then was forced to go to a nearby gas station where I met another patron who proceeded to tell me the ARCO’ manager at that same station isn’t any better than tonite’ idiot cashier. He himself had a horrific experience with this SAME ARCO cashier I had tonite that he had actually filed HIS complaint directly to Arco «Corp» office. We both agreed this obnoxious cashier ’ GOTTA GO!
Gas is too expensive these days to have to put up with really bad customer service station cashiers.

bad place to pump gas
–1 star, this place is priced $ 0.10 higher than my regular gas station in Huntington Beach (pumped same day)
–1 star, all the payment machines do not accept cash and force us to go inside to pay. either fix the machines or take down your big signs that say pay ‘cash/​credit here.’ when I see businesses like this I think the owners are throwing on the white towel and have given up. the business is going down as small broken problems will start adding up
— 1 star, I go inside to pay and ask the cashier how long the payment machines have been down and she laughs. ‘3−5 months’ she says. I hate wasting my time going inside

I got gas and paid cash at the pump. I put $ 30 in the cash machine and the tank would only take $ 26, so I had no choice but to drive up to get my money back. Unfortunately I am handicapped and also have mobility issues so getting out of the car can be a problem. Hoping the clerk would be accommodating as 90% of businesses are when told I am handicapped, the clerk came out shouting slurs at me such as you lazy **** and what are you too fat to get out of your car? He made sure he insulted me towards my back so he thought I couldn’t hear him. I will never go to this gas station again. It really is sickening the way some people treat someone who is handicapped. I blame the management in a situation like this as they should be the responsible party to educate their employees about special needs customers. This is all to prevalent in our society. And to the person who thinks this gas is cheaper, go up the block to Mobil, the price was about 20 cents a gallon cheaper. Next time better gas, better people.

This is conveniently located near the 405 entrance on Brookhurst. Arco has cheaper gas prices, but I would recommend paying cash, unless you want your debit card charged an extra $ 0.35! Also you can put cash into the pay machines and enter your pump number conveniently without even having to make the walk to the cashier! Listen to music as you pump for extra fun! ;-) If you choose to make the trip inside to pay, say if you need cash back, you can choose from a very large variety of foods, drinks, pharmacy items, etc. This is definitely a great stop for your fuel needs folks!

This is an easy gas station to get in and out of… and the prices are usually a good 10 cents less per gallon or so, than the stations down the street on Brookhurst and Warner… but they charge you 35 cents to use your ATM card, which is a bummer… and they dont take credit cards.

Pumps move so slow wtf! And all the latches on the pump are missing. U suck like hoover arco

Arco doesn’t have an option to use a credit card at the pump? You can either use cash or a debit card but if you want to use a credit card you have to pay inside which is ridiculous. I will continue to pass this and every other Arco station by as there are so many better options.

This Arco has the lowest priced and we have never had a problem. Debit only on the pumps though.

Cruisen along in my automobile… and ohhh CHIT the gas light just popped on!!! WTH man!!! Didnt I just fill up the tank? Ohhh look im on the 405 and there is Brookhurst! sweet let me pop off to the Arco and put in $ 20 on the quicks…
Pro Tip #1: There is an additional fee for use of your debit card in lieu of cash!
Well I have stopped at this location for years now. When in that exact situation described above. Honestly its not my preferred station since they dont take credit cards, but in a pinch, yeah this will do the trick!
Pro Tip #2: One block North of the 405 on the NW corner. The former location on the SE corner may fool you though, but it is officially closed and unused! I know I used to go there too!!!
None the less they have the island cash/​debit machines. To help speed things along. Fairly good pricing here but not the best.
The AMPM portion is your typical c-​store with all of the typical items, but they dont take a credit card so dont bother trying! This joint is usually fairly clean at the pumps and c-​store. This is a nice change from some lower end AMPMs.
