New Pemex W of Ajijic doesn't accept credit cards

The new Pemex just past Los Sabinos and the old Japanese vivero says yes if you ask if they accept credit cards. They fill your tank and then run your card which comes back not approved. I asked before I filled up and did not have enough cash to pay in full. I went back to talk to the jefe. He said there was nothing he could do. I went into the Oxxo and bought a few things on the same credit card and it was of course approved. He asked the woman working the cash register to add enough to cover the balance of gasoline bill. She handed me back cash and I gave it to the jefe with what I had to pay the bill. I told him it was not the card was it? He finally said it was their system and no non-mexican cards were approved. I asked why not just tell people they didn't accept them and he said he couldn't do that because of the owner. I supposed if they had to siphon our a tank or two this might change! 

This Pemex to the west should have a sign posted  "no aceptamos tarjetas de crédito extranjeras"
