I just pulled up in a petrol station to fill up and there was a police car sat there (one copper inside and one in the car) anyway i fill up and go in to pay. By this point the two cops are stood in the doorway, i say hello and they step aside. I walk up to the counter only to have the two blokes behind the counter slouching on the side ignoring me so i said "pump three please" he replied "oh ok then" as if he was surprised i was paying. He then looked at my credit card funny, the other bloke came over and said "oh this is going to be a fun night" i said "why whats happening" thinking someone was in shit. "oh youll see, you might be going home safe...... or maybe not" and laughed. At this point i was annoyed then the other bloke started singing some shit song "oh how the stars fall from the sky......." then they both laughed. "what ever" i turned away and the cops were staring at me and wanted a chat......
Turns out because ive changed my plate to a personal one my car is down as un-registered and doesnt excist, luckily i was carry all my documents! the cops were happy with it and said it takes up to 6 weeks for the DVLA system to update, nice of the dvla bloke to tell me this 
Rant over but im still annoyed at the petrol station pricks, any ideas to rub it in their faces that they were wrong, should i complain?
End.

Complaining wont get anything done trust me. customers have phoned up spoke to my old boss(s) and complained about me (i work for sainsburys) and all i got told was Boss :"Some one just phoned up and complained about you *laughing*" Me: " Hahahaha oh ok what did i do"... Wanna piss them off then spark a tab up when filling your car up walk in the shop with it throw some money at (1p short) them and walk out, Not only will you scare them it will annoy them

I pulled out my trusty vauxhall service wallet which had all details in, i did say to the police about them, they just said "think how boring this job is". But the police were really nice about it, just wound me up as they sat their taking the piss point blank to my face. Going to pop in there tomorrow and hopefully see them again. I will be driving three of my mates back from the pub so might make them feel un easy that way.
Im a manager and if my staff did that they would be straight in for a meeting, not really acceptable service in my eyes.

Bunch of cunts tbh. Police were a bit un-professional telling them too. At least you got it sorted.

police probably didnt say anything, petrol forecourts have numberplate cameras  may have been the other way round petrol attendents told the police the car was comming up unregistered
Badgers is about right, and atl least the police were polite etc.. makes a change

Go in there tomorrow and knock the display of cans over.
OR pick up loads of individual items, and I mean loads, get to the till then say you've lost your wallet and walk off.
I did a smiliar thing to this with an entire £90 of food shopping in morrisons. When the woman wouldn't serve me for a 4 pack of beer amoungst the items as my girlfriend didn't have ID, I just said I'll go elsewehere
