I filled them up recently and since the day I did fill it up its had to be forced out. As in, pulled the indicator for at least 5 second before anything happens. Any ideas what could be causing this?
Yes I did put it in the right place before anybody asks 
04 clio btw, didn't fancy signing up to some shite excuse for a car forum

At a guess, I'd say the pump itself. Are the jets blocked? But with blocked jets I'd say it wouldn't come out at all. imho it seems like the pump is taking a while to get going.

Easy job? Job for a specialist? (Shit with cars ) Expensive?
I can cope with it but I'm fairly certain there required for an MOT are they not? Knowing my luck it will completely konk out the day before my MOT so thought I'd check it out.

No idea about changing the pump. Can't imagine it'd be that bad. Pretty easy on a Corsa but that is all visible and accessible.
On my missus Fiesta, you can't see the tank (it has a warning light on the dash) so I would imagine you have to access the pump from beneath the car which would make it a pain in the arse.
