I tend to use a local petrol station that has a 'pay at pump' function, where you don't need to go into pay the cashier. No problem leaving your lid on then.
I must say that in the winter, especially if it is pissing down, and as I wear glasses, I do object to taking my helmet off. It's quite a faff doing it comfortably all back up again, and anyway I prefer to be treated as innocent rather than potentially guilty.
As I said in a previous thread, the way to deter this, if they insist and don't switch the pump on, is to carefully lay the nozzle on the ground, and ride off to fill up somewhere else 
I know for a fact (brother works there) that Sainsbury's policy is not to ask for bikers to remove helmets as it could cause aggravation, even though they'd appreciate it if we did.
The only time they WILL ask to remove a helmet is if anyone wants to buy cigs or booze so that they can confirm the age of the customer, which I can accept as a company policy, 'though my brother has said that if they can see that the biker is definitely over 25 (say, 40+) then some cashiers won't bother asking for removal!
Anyway, I always fill at Sainsburys as they're generally cheaper, if there's no pay-at-pump available anywhere else.
I was asked to pay before fueling once, early one morning on my way to work in the car. I said I was willing to pay if he could tell me how much I was going to spend filling my tank, he couldn't and I didn't pay until I filled it.
Yep I wear glasses too and also have an issue with earplugs so taking helmet off tends to dislodge them and I will need to sit back at the pump with my finger in my ears untill they have expanded and fit in again. Dont reply about the plugs as that is way off topic and another story.
Anyway its about holding up the station is it ?, as in --- gimmi all your money. So I must be on a stolen bike also because my reg number is being recorded on cctv is it not.
How many petrol stations have been done over this way I wonder.
And if I were to do so I wouldnt pretend to need filling up first inorder as an excuse to need to walk in, as I would just walk in --------------- I dont get it, whats behind the remove your helmet thing.
And yes I always (mostly ) use the pay at pump ones which will lead to the atendents loosing their jobs

This guy has tried the "take off helmet, put on balaclava" response.

I hve had the whole pay foe fuel before hand so I asked to see the policy for paying for goods not recieved. I now only use pay at pump the staff leave you alome there, lid on sitting on bike in and out. I got told to get off the bike once too so I went in and asked how am I to fill my tank to the top with it leaning to one side? She had no answer so left me to it. There is a sign in a fuel station in luton saying no sitting on the bike.
I wish I couls show them.the episode on mythbusters where they tested the mobile phone and fuel vapour and even a fag and fuel vapour and couldnt ignite with either, and working as a fuel tanker specialist flash points are a daily concern for me. Jobsworths most of them
