i can only think of a few possibles at the moment, assuming it's diesel :?:

the fuel pump seals ( most likely the one at the back of the pump ) :?: i have had the same problem as you describe and this was the fault
fuel filler cap causing a vacuum :?:
blocked banjo filter :?:

If it was serviced last week I'd have a chat with the garage that serviced it. Maybe they did something or can suggest something that may be causing it.
