Fish the three numbers out of your postal code, enter those, and "00" afterwards.

For example, if your postal code is A1B 2C3 then enter "12300"

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

This has worked everytime for me.

Prepay in cash. Works every time.

Sure, get off bike, remove helmet gloves, dig out wallet, pay. Go back to bike fill up. Go back to get cash and then gear up.
vs remove gloves and dig out wallet.
Postal code trick is 10000000 times easier IMO.

It must just be me then. I do not use credit or debit for gas purchases. I prefer to use cash for gas purchases because my cards have been compromised too many times and the suspect location has always been a gas station. When travelling on the bike I keep cash handy for gas and tolls in the lockable compartment in the fairing where it is more easy to get to when needed.

I don't mind taking off the helmet and walking back and forth because my bike only needs a fill-up every 450 km or so. With stops that far apart I typically need a rest stop anyway, so it gives me a chance to grab a drink and hit the restroom before mounting up and riding the next 450 km.

I had my info stolen from a gas station right here in Belleville. So now, I pay cash for most things.

I've had my info stolen multiple times and my bank account completely emptied before. Still not enough of a hassle to bother messing with cash. Especially foreign cash. I credit card everything.
