Default HELP Please Fuel Tank Issue

Ok So I have a 2001 Chevy Blazer it has had about $10,000 worth of repairs all ready and i Bought it new Now when ever i go to fill up the gas tank at any gas station the Pump shuts off before the tank is anywhere near full sometimes after only $0.10 othertimes the tank gets 11$ before stopping the the Pump
Please Help ASAP with Pics if possible because i have no clue about cars but dont want to pay for the mechanic to get a second boat :P

Have you tried not sticking the fill nozzle into the fuel tank as far as it can go?

Some nozzles are more sensitive than others... Does it do this at pretty much any gas station?

yes it does it every where i think the hose that leades from the tank to the nozzle is loose because it is leaking alot down there i will have to bring it to the Mechanic if nobody knows what else to do

Sounds like there is a problem in the fill tube. Some kind of obstruction and break in the line.

Is this a 2dr or 4dr? The 4dr has a much longer filler tube than the 2dr.

How many side doors does it have... I didn't ask about whether it was 4wd or 2wd...

The 4 door models have a filler tube looking like this:
