How to get 400 points for Flying J Review?
I reviewed the station and left a review, but did not get any points !
Please help because I will miss those 400 points again.

I know what you wrote, but did you review the statio, and actually put a comment in the comments section, or did you just rate the station without putting in a review in the comments section? I had no problem entering a review (that is, comments) for the challenge, so it may have simply been a glitch on your part when trying to complete the challenge. Simply rate and review another station, even if it's not near you.

Simply rate and review another station, even if it's not near you. I believe you have to be within 25 miles of whatever station you review to get the points. gbo is right that you have to both complete the ratings and type out some kind of brief review, such as "It's a typical giant truck stop."

I find this to be a little confusing. Flying J and Pilot during the same week is a little silly.
I entered at two different pilot / flying J's and only got the Pilot survey points.
Both are within 10 miles (one 3 another 9).
will be close to another one today during travel into city and hope that works.
Otherwise I may have to go into closet and cry...

Ohio actually had 4 separate challenges: Pilot/Flying J/Pilot Express/Mr. Fuel I'm sure the company pays GasBuddy for the challenges. We had the same 4some in March.

I'm not close enough to Flying J or Pilot to bother. I got some extra points for posting gas prices from a Wawa station today.

I wrote a short review (about 5 words) and nothing - No points ! I tried with a few stations (close to me and not so close) with the same effect - no points ! I sent a question to GB Moderator on Thursday and also no answer ! Now GB really sucks !

I received the proper credit the other day for both the Flying J and the Pilot station challenges by getting within one-half mile of the station prior to beginning the review. I also posted brief comments in the comment section and was credited immediately with the points.
The last time I attempted this challenge I was not within a half mile of the station based on GPS coordinates but I was well within the 25 mile range and did not receive any credit for the challenge. Also normally once you complete a review for a particular station you cannot do an additional review for at least 7 days, so if you only have one of these stations in your area you are out of luck if it does not work the first time.
Since there are no Pilot Express or Mr Fuel locations anywhere near me I was not able to complete all four of the challenges.

If one has to be within 25 miles, I have no chance, the nearest one of either is 200+ miles.

I had previously been at a Flying J and reviewed it. When the challenge came up again, it didn't specify that you had to be within a certain distance. I reviewed the same station again from home (about 40 miles away) and got the points.

There's a 400 point rate a Gulf Station special challenge today if you're in a state that has Gulf stations. No proximity requirement noted. I'm about 20 miles away and rated it from recent memory.
I think the Flying J and other challenges looked similar -- i.e., no stated proximity requirement, but they might still have something.
