Does Flying J Accept Debit cards same as cash?

No they do not! Used my card thus morning with no problem but tonight at same station they refused the debit card. Stating that they are "per-pay only". I pointed out that it's a "debit card" which is a point of sale transaction that is the same as cash. The manager said they would put a $50 hold on my account & if I didn't fill up to that amount they would release the hold in a few days. I told her to keep her gas & that I will be making my purchase from the station across the street at the same price without their hassle.
