About Kintore Store

Kintore Store is a small independent Caltex‑branded service station and community shop located in the remote Aboriginal community of Kintore in the Northern Territory, Australia. It primarily serves local residents, outstation communities, and travellers passing through the Western Desert region. In addition to petrol and diesel fuel, the store typically offers basic groceries, bottled water, snacks, drinks, and essential household items, and may also stock limited automotive supplies such as engine oil or coolant. Because of its remote location, it is often one of the only places in the area where you can purchase fuel and basic provisions.

A Kintore Store charge may appear on your bank or card statement when you buy fuel, food, groceries, or other supplies in‑store and pay by card (EFTPOS, debit, or credit). Transactions may show up under descriptions such as “KINTORE STORE,” “CALtex KINTORE,” or similar variations depending on your bank. You might see separate transactions if you made multiple purchases on the same day, added fuel and shop items in separate payments, or if an initial fuel pre‑authorisation amount was taken and then replaced by the final sale total. In some cases, a pending or small temporary hold may appear when the terminal checks that your card has sufficient funds.

If you don’t recognise a Kintore Store charge, start by checking your travel history, fuel stops, and receipts from trips through remote NT communities around the transaction date. Compare the amount to typical fuel fills or small grocery top‑ups, and look for a matching EFTPOS receipt if you still have it. To resolve questions, you can usually contact the store using the phone number listed on your receipt or by searching local directory listings for “Kintore Store” in Kintore, NT; a staff member can look up your transaction by date, time, and amount. If you suspect a billing error or unauthorised use, contact your bank or card provider promptly to query or dispute the charge while they investigate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did I get a charge from Kintore Store on my bank statement?

A charge from Kintore Store usually appears when you pay by card for fuel, groceries, or other items at the Caltex‑branded service station and community shop in Kintore, NT. Travellers often see this charge after refuelling while passing through remote Western Desert roads, sometimes several days after the actual stop if their bank processes transactions slowly. The description may include variations like “KINTORE STORE,” “CALTEX KINTORE,” or abbreviations depending on your bank’s formatting.

What are common amounts I might see from Kintore Store?

Common charge amounts from Kintore Store include full fuel fills (often in round or near‑round dollar figures) and small to moderate grocery or snack purchases, typically anywhere from a few Australian dollars to larger totals for combined fuel and supplies. Because fuel is more expensive in remote communities, fuel‑only transactions can be higher than what you might expect in cities. It’s also common to see one larger fuel amount and a smaller shop amount on the same day if you paid separately.

Why do I see a pending or temporary Kintore Store charge on my account?

When you pay at the pump or use a card terminal for fuel, Kintore Store’s EFTPOS system may place a temporary pre‑authorisation on your card to confirm available funds. This hold can be for a standard amount set by the payment processor, which may differ from your final purchase total. Once the actual transaction is processed, the hold is released and replaced by the final charge, usually within a few business days, depending on your bank.

Can I set up a subscription or recurring billing with Kintore Store?

Kintore Store does not typically operate on a subscription or membership model; charges are almost always one‑off in‑store transactions for fuel or goods. If you see regular charges from Kintore Store on your statement (for example, the same day each week or month), it is usually because you or someone with access to your card is refuelling or shopping there frequently. Review who uses your card and check any work‑related or shared‑vehicle fuel arrangements.

How can I get a copy of a receipt or verify a specific Kintore Store transaction?

To verify a charge, first note the exact date, amount, and time (if shown) from your statement. Then contact Kintore Store directly using the phone number printed on your original receipt or by searching local directory/online map listings for “Kintore Store” in Kintore, Northern Territory. Staff can usually check their till or EFTPOS records by date and amount to confirm what was purchased and re‑issue or summarise a receipt where possible.

How do I request a refund or correct an overcharge from Kintore Store?

If you believe you were overcharged or billed in error, contact Kintore Store as soon as possible with the transaction date, exact amount, and last four digits of your card. They can review their till and EFTPOS logs to confirm the sale and, if there was a mistake, process a refund or adjustment back to the same card used for payment. If you cannot resolve the issue directly or suspect fraud, contact your bank to raise a dispute and follow their chargeback process.

I don’t live near Kintore – could this Kintore Store charge still be mine?

Yes. Many people see Kintore Store on their statement after a long road trip, camping holiday, or work trip in remote NT and simply forget the specific fuel stop. Check any recent travel through central or western Northern Territory, especially trips involving remote community access roads, and compare the date and amount to your fuel log or itinerary. If you have never been in that region and no one else has legitimate access to your card, contact your bank to report a potentially unauthorised transaction.

How can I contact Kintore Store about a charge if I don’t have the receipt?

If you no longer have the receipt, use the information on your bank statement—date, amount, and merchant description—to help the store identify your purchase. Look up “Kintore Store” in Kintore, NT using an online map or telephone directory to find their most current phone number, and call during normal local business hours. Provide your transaction details and they can usually confirm whether the charge matches a sale processed through their terminal.
