    how upset would you get and what would you do

    you saved 3.50 for using it but at say 2.30 a gallon a 100 gal. would cost 230.00 x the 5% tri-state charges to load the comdata card it just cost you 11.50 to get your money in advance to pay for the fuel minus 3.50 you saved still makes the transaction cost 8.00.
