Flying J / Pilot / One9 "myRewards"

[plyonsMC9]

So it takes me a while to figure things out.  I had been using the Flying J Rewards card from time to time, as it provided a reasonable fuel discount, and was sometimes handy.  I would also intermittently use the RV or truck pumps depending on the situation.

The card began to throw errors a couple months ago.  Each time the cashier tried to process the transaction, it would also fail.  And I'd end up just using a credit card.  A week ago we finally called customer service. The program has been cancelled since sometime late last year.    

I checked out the myRewards program and was about to sign up, but it looks more like just a way to market and send emails and texts to the RV'r.  Yes, with enough points you can save some money on a hot dog or soft drink, etc..  The new program looks underwhelming compared to the alternative methods to save any money or receive value.  Am I missing something?

And for those who may have missed it, the original program for fuel savings is gone.

Take care folks!, Phil

Haha!,  Thanks Cliff - the outcome will be mutual.  Neither of us will give anything to the other.   

Kind Regards, Phil

I have a friend that runs a small fleet of trucks. I know he quiet using Flying J sometime last year because of the changes of the reward program. They run I-80 a lot midwest to back east so they used Flying J and pilot a lot years back. I think they are using the fuel Apps more and Love's truck stops. Buffet only wants the big guys.

I used the Pilot/Flying J RV Plus card through Good Sam Club for years, pretty good discount and easy on/off interstates.

September last year I got declined and called, they said the Program was discontinued.

I know Pilot/Flying J had started using the TSD Open Roads card and the RV Plus card people made them stop due to some agreement.

I would not be surprised to see them bring back the TSD Open Roads card.
