I'm not saying that this doesn't happen but in nearly 20 years of driving around the UK I've yet to encounter it.

I’ve only driven in maybe a dozen countries, but so far the US is the only one where the pre-payment thing existed. I was glad to have read about it in trip prep, or I would have stood there staring at a non-functioning gas pump for far too long!
