Circle K Fuel Program Outage Investigation

Migliaccio & Rathod LLP is investigating consumer complaints that Circle K Inner Circle and Easy Pay fuel programs have failed to provide promised discounts in 2025. Drivers report frequent technical glitches where transactions freeze at “Authorizing …” or loyalty membership is not recognized, forcing customers to pay full price at the pump.

Reported Customer Experiences

On Reddit and other consumer forums, members describe repeated outages across Circle K locations nationwide. Instead of receiving the 10¢-per-gallon discount and free beverage perks, many were charged the posted price because the system failed to apply benefits.

Why Consumers Should Be Concerned

When fuel companies advertise loyalty discounts, they are legally obligated to honor them. Denying customers these perks is similar to rejecting a valid coupon at checkout and may amount to deceptive business practices.
