    I agree and Fleet One has not been any problems at all for me either.

    NASTC Fleet One Card is the best program I have found to date for me.

    Did some checkin...


    First Data Corp. EFS and Transportation Clearing House have announced plans to create a joint venture company. Both companies provide unique services that, when combined, will be a leading payment card provider to the transportation industry, according to the announcement.

    Oct. 16, 2012-- C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. (“C.H. Robinson”) (Nasdaq: CHRW), today announced that it has reached a definitive agreement and has sold its payment services business, T-Chek Systems, Inc. (“T-Chek”), to Electronic Funds Source, LLC (“EFS”) for $302.5 million in cash. EFS acquired the assets and assumed certain liabilities of T-Chek.

    So now that its cleared up in my head, I want NO transaction fees and my OLD GOOD Flying J discount back. Make money on me on both ends is BS.

    Thanks I just filled out the online app. I like what I hear about them and comcheck. But when I went to the fleet one website it said:

    Wright Express has completed the acquisition of Fleet One - a fuel cards, financial services and fleet management information services provider.

    So hopefully everything will still be the same as you all are sayin.

    Thanks for the information on the NASTC card. We are getting a Comdata card which will give us discounts, but will get charged for various transactions. We have also ordered a Fleet One card, Pilot and Loves cards. I used Comdata when leased to a carrier, but we now have our own authority and will be figuring which one works the best and at which truck stops.

    if you want the discounts , with Fleet One card, you must join NASTC first , and get your card thru them.

    Think the NASTC mainly uses TA's too, which I rarely go to. A week or so ago there was $.14 cents per gallon difference cash to cash price between Loves & TA. Have no idea what if any the additional discount the NASTC card may have provided. Am pretty sure I would be the sort that card would throw off their member list for not using it enough.

    I use FleetOne from NASTC and you get a book, or go on line, you will see all kinds of fuel points. Mom & Pops and yes TA's/Petro Loves as well but, more of the smaller no name places.
