Went to a 76; usually avoid that brand but once in a while I try them. Chip reader at the pump wouldn't work, kept defaulting to swipe, declining, so had to pay inside. Wayne Pumps/Verifone Cash Register. Paid inside and was able to use Contactless but got a "debit card yes/no?" prompt after tapping then it processed and still MSD Contactless.

Some other 76 units in my area with Gilbarco Pumps/Gilbarco cash registers that have Contactless on the pumps have been declining any card you attempt to Tap for quite a while now. Then when you pay inside they demand you insert your card and won't let you tap. I suspect this is due to that it is MSD Contactless and their system must not be able to support the required EMV Contactless. So somehow that station operator got Tap disabled entirely (they have a few stations).
