TSD Logistics shows what Good Sam is making off of us

[J&JD]

Did you follow my steps I linked somewhere above? I signed up for one in the process via the app and proceeded with TSD setup.

Go to the website, go to the ap. No matter where you go it seems that without the card with the rewards # you cannot register. Apparently you must physically go to a Loves Store to obtain a Rewards Card with the rewards # on it. Just don’t see how you can otherwise register.

I wish I could remember what I did but I have not stepped foot into a store. @ARD you recently did yours, what did you do? (I know she's sightseeing at the moment, hopefully she can answer soon).

Setting up the app is now being discussed in the other thread, link below. Let's use that and not continue this thread and have two threads running. Blame @TJ&LadyDi

FYI - TSD Logistics Fuel Savings Program

Most have heard about this program where you can get discounts at Love's, TA, and other places coming soon (PFJ not on board yet). I hesitated but after reading of the savings people were getting I decided why not. I already have the PFJ card that I got from Good Sam Elite membership, a Quarles...

Sure, blame TJ&LadyDI for something you stated, @Neal!

Ok, already with the sales pitches, guess we might as well get one for our 7000 mile cross country trip to hopefully start in June. Always like Flying J's, but guess I'll have to try Loves.
BTW: Is the card good at other locations like Petro, Husky or TA?

 

[sheridany]

Yes. I believe TA petro just came on the program. Not sure about husky. You can use the card at PFJ just no discount in care you really need fuel.

 

[Akdare]

They’ve just added TA/Petro...when you get the card, download the EFS card control app; it will show you all the stations in your area (or along your route) that offer a discount; lowest price in green.

Per a recent announcement from TSD Logistics, theIr EFS card can be used for discounts at "TA, Petro, Loves, Road Ranger, SAAP Brothers, Ambest, Kwik Trip and Kwik Star."

Can't help with the registration process. I'm like Neil, I never went into a Love's store to get a rewards account application so I doubt I have one. The only thing I know is that my Love's app on my iPhone and my EFS CardControl app work perfectly.

My last fuel stop (up by Muscle Shoals) at a Love's was almost a disaster. I went through the app just like always to turn the pump on and got the "failed" message twice. I tried the third time and it went through and the pump came on. This was my first issue with using the app at a Love's.

So far from Florida to western Tennessee I have saved just over $107.00 by using EFS and Love's. By the time the end of the week rolls around (planned fuel stops) I will easily hit a $200 savings this first month on the road. The way I look at this program it will easily pay for my annual coach maintenance.

 

[Neal]

I had the failed situation the other day too and had to go through it 2-3 times. Just remember we can swipe the card, the love's app's only purpose is authorizing the pump from within the coach. I think in my case I turned off wifi on the phone so it would use cellular and that did the trick.

 

[TJ&LadyDi]

Just downloaded and set up the TSD app. All that was needed was to set a PIN number; I guess. It didn't ask for anything else and seems like when I did that, everything was good. So, now I can see all my transactions, check pricing, etc. on this app and use the Love's Connect app to remotely start the pump at Love's.

Hopefully, we'll get a chance to use it soon as I set up a service appointment for the coach in early June at Guaranty RV in Oregon. From there, we hope to go to our place in Montana. Sure hope this coronavirus thing doesn't spike up again.

Don't get all excited about using the Love's app paired with your phone just yet. In preparation for another couple day of traveling I have been looking for my next couple of fuel stops (between TN, KY, and IL).

The Love's in most states have dropped their discount to pennies. I think the best discount that was going to work for me at any upcoming Love's was around .12 per gallon. I was able to find two TA Truck Stops on my upcoming routes that were discounted over .80 per gallon so I will be going there.

I hope Love's come back on board with those cheap prices but I'm going where the card tells me to go for the biggest savings.

 

[Neemer]

Interesting. I just confirmed the same here locally. $.16 at Loves, over a dollar at T/A.

 

[Neal]

I'd be interested to learn what the savings would show when fueling there, i.e. is what the app is showing really the discount? Maybe email TSD and ask? Remember we don't want to ask Love's

 

[Neal]

Okay, upon further research it appears Love's pricing is not so good now. Maybe this is why we got the email from TSD to starting checking TA/Petro. What a shame but Love's may be in the rear view mirror now. Do your research on current pricing as best as you can in the EFS app. I knew I should have gone forward with that 50K gallon tanker stacker trailer.

 

[Neal]

Isn't there a connection between PFJ and Love's? I thought one bought the other?

 

[CoreyinWP]

Don’t think so

 

[TJ&LadyDi]

Isn't there a connection between PFJ and Love's? I thought one bought the other?

Berkshire Hathaway (Warren Buffett) holds the majority of ownership shares (80%) in PFJ. The remaining shares are owned by the founding Haslam family. Love's is a privately-held company owned 100% by the founding Love family.

There does not appear to be any ownership connection between the two.

In a quick google it looks like PFJ sold some of their locations to Love's, but thought there was something more recent than that. Oh well. I want my Love's super cheap Diesel back ?
