7 eleven and using comdata fuel card

Use it as a debit card.

What's wrong with your compant, they have stock in 7-11?

 

Probably paying cash price and 7-11 has a cash price posted lower than Pilot

 

Did you think to call your company and ask them the information about fueling?

 

That would be my first thought as well.

 

Comdata cards have two pin numbers associated with them.
One is for your personal payroll account, if you are paid via the Comdata card.
The other is a pin for company paid functions like cash advances. They can also bee used at smaller fueling points, like the Seven-Eleven.
At the larger fuel suppliers the pin is not needed because they have the computer systems to run the various fueling networks. I only had to use the pin system to buy fuel twice in 20 years. Both were small places in Canada.

 

The larger truckstops have Trendar, so no pin numbers are needed. Trendar is the computer system that links Comdata, T Chek, and the other fuel cards to the truckstop. If you ask if the have Trendar, and get a blank look/stare, they may take comdata, but have to manually call Comdata to process the card. They will then usually take an imprint of the card on a credit transaction slip. It is a good policy to ask before fueling. Also, do not fuel at convience stores in Arizona unless the pump shows a sticker for 26 cents a gallon fuel tax. The fuel tax for diesel pickups/cars is 18 cents a gallon and the higher tax rate applies to any vehicle over 26,000 lbs and the fine for using the lower taxed fuel is spendy.
