Flying J card

Thank you fishingbob. That makes one less RV crowding the pumps and makes more room for me. However, most of your answers are right here.

I've only had one problem with the FJ/Pilot credit card which was immediately cleared up with a call to the number on the card. Maximum discount is obtained when the payment to FH/Pilot is automatically paid.

great

This is back to the administrater about calling FJ about the 9c for elete member for diesel said would ck into it and call me back in about an hour it is over 24hr and no call, so I have made my last stop at FJ as others have said it is not worth the wait in line.

I just use my Sam's club charge card and I get a good discount from Sam's club at any station.

I have the RV Plus Card and only use it when Diesel is $2.159 or under.
I am a Life Member and get 8¢ a gal off Diesel.

But when I swipe my Good Sam card I get 3¢ then I swipe my Visa CC for the 3% discount it gives me.
So any price over $2.159 I swipe GS and use Visa.

I use the Swipe&Save to start the truck pump and set the price to 3 cents off the cash price then go inside to pay with my 5% cash back credit card. Works for me!

Really? :S Is this all you have to worry about?

He is full of one-liners. Some days you just have to use the block button. It does get old when no value is added.

This is all well and good in theory, but I have trouble about 50% or more of the time when I do stop at a Flying J just to get the Discount on the Discount card.

If I am NOT getting a substantial discount at Fly J then it just isnt worth stopping there considering the long lines and wait times to pay.

Further depending on the credit cards interest rate it may be no bargain at all unless you pay it in full each month.

I might consider this if you can ever get Fly J to actually accept the discount card with NO issues across their network and the interest rate is competitive (and by competitive I don't mean 24.99%)

What problem do you have?
With the Good Sam card that you swipe for 3¢ discount?

The RV Plus Charge Card has NO Interest charge.
All balances must be paid in full at the end of each billing cycle. Unlike a credit card, the RV Plus Charge Card requires payment in full each month. By paying the balance monthly, the RV Plus Charge Card saves you from costly interest charges. This allows you to receive the fuel discounts, plus the convenience of a charge card without accruing costly interest charges.

Yes you are correct about the CHARGE Card. My mistake. I thought they were referring to the Flying J Credit Card.

As for my problem: Well in many visits to Fly J's I have only been successful in getting the three cents in a few cases (All at company owned locations not franchises, I have the store listing) And when I make that unnecessary trip inside and stand in line behind 8 Long Haul Drivers queuing up for their showers or scale tickets, the person at the desk knows NOTHING about the discount or how it works.

So I felt justified in my skepticism, but having an open mind and reading what you wrote and upon some more investigation, I may look into it.

Thanks for the clarification

I use the GS Pilot/Flying J card as much as possible when traveling. I like that there is not limit to the amount of fuel I can pump so there is no inconvenient cutoff and re-authorization. I also have the monthly balance taken directly from my checking account so I don't have to worry about paying the bill when I'm on the road. Had trouble one time which was quickly cleared by a phone call.

However, some times there very crowded and difficult to navigate.
