Coming home from a great weekend in Centre, Ala. and wanted to utilize my membership with Good Sam. I stopped in Temple, Ga. to fill up with fuel and propane. As I pulled in to the Pilot I didn't notice a propane tank but pulled to the fuel tank anyway. Told the counter help I was filling up and showed my Good Sam Card. She allowed me to complete my fill up and when I went to pay there was no discount. I asked about it and was looked at like I had two heads. I then told her I needed propane and was told I would have to go the Flying J down the street for that. Since I was off the interstate I pulled to the other Good Sam supported station and got to the propane tank, called inside for service and after a twenty minute wait the assistant came out to inform me they had been out of fuel for a couple of days. Not a great way to get me to renew next year. I am sure there are good stories out there also it just seems every time I stop in there is a sign on my forehead that says "I'm stupid".

I like flying j for the rv pull thru pumps but had a bad experience at flying j at exit 104 on i95 in va today the outside lane does not allow enough radius for a 32 footer pulling a jeep

I have used both lanes at that flying j if you are talking about the RV lanes. I can getin and out with no issue at 42 feet towing a jeep.

OP Stuff happens. I gather that you have the Swipe and Save card and as such it's somewhat new this year I believe. Perhaps review the card use procedures and make sure you have the discount before pumping.While I have the Swipe and Save card it's doubtful that I will use it. Simply stated I get 5% cash back with my CC on fuel and I get this at virtually all fuel stations including FJ.

I have had the rv advantage card now $.03/gal for many years now and use both it and my CC with a 3% or sometimes 5% cashback whenver possible today paid $$3.20/ gal and will get $.09/gal cash back. Always swipe them first before pumping to make sure I get the discounts when your buying 50 or 60 gals.at a fill every penny counts.

We use Pilot/Flying J for the convenience (right off the interstate, easy pull thru (37' A towing a Wrangler), etc.)... At the pump you swipe your credit card, then swipe your GS Swipe & Save card, get 3 cents off a gallon.... which still does not make them the cheapest around....... However, the ability to get in & out easily, spend the night if needed, etc. makes it worthwhile to us.......

Flying J is in big trouble with the Feds. They just charged a handfull of top executives with Fraud relating to defrauding large trucking companies of rebates. A handful of high level execs were terminated and the thought is that even the owners ( Jim Haslam, who also owns the Cleveland Browns, and his brother Gov. Bill Haslam.) may have had knowledge of the scheme. They never got much of my business before and will not get any from now on.

That one is not far from me. The problem there is that people often park next to the curb in front of the lanes, thus making it difficult to pull through far enough to begin making a turn.

Is that what happened to you?

not all the truck diesel lanes accept the RV Plus Charge Card at the pump. Only the RV lanes at Flying J's or specifically marked RV lanes in the truck diesel area. You have to go inside. Many of the Pilot cashiers do not know about the RV program and discounts. Even one manager in Knoxville TN didn't know about it! I contacted the headquarters office and was promptly given my discount on my bill with an apology and promise to do more training. More communication is needed and more RV lanes are needed in the truck diesel area that accept both the RV Advantage card and the RV Plus Charge card!! Most "auto diesel" lanes at Pilot stops are not RV accessible when towing.
