Swift transportation Lease opp ripoff Nationwide
This company will lure you to sign a lease with them telling you 1 you will be your own boss 2 you have newer well maintained equipment 3 you can choose your own loads. Truth time 1. You are a company driver with the expense of being a owner. 2. The new well maintained truck has 437000 miles on it. With no maintenance records of ever having dpf cleaned. Guess where im sitting now. Yep geting it cleaned now. Called the owner opp division the response i got is "that with that many miles it had to have been cleaned before but the previous owner didnt file the paperework". Wow how can they claim well maintained if they are making an assumption that it has been cleaned. If they didnt know for sure shouldnt maybe some have checked before leasing it out 3. I have requested load board many times it never returns any loads. So still you get to choose you own loads from a load board with no loads on it. So basically you still have to contact terminal get them to find you one just like a company driver. So yeah like mentioned above your a company driver with the expense of being owner. Guess who gets to pay for that filter cleaning. Spoke of above that there is no record of it being cleaned. Do not ever lease a truck from them. I dont care if you dont have credit to get one somewhere else. I dont care what fancy lines they give you. THEY ARE LIEING. working for them as company driver aint horible to get experience but do not plan long term with that. It is not a company you can make a career with. Just learn.

Here the latest Lie. They tell you they give you a fuel surcharge to offset the cost of fuel. Sounds great. The catch if you dont pay enough for fuel they take money from your checks. Yes you read that right. Now that fuel is down across the country they are actually taking money from their drivers at a rate of .007 per mile. Now hows that work? Its not like with the low prices theyre having to pay extra theyre just taking it. NOTE I am now looking for an attorney to see if i can recover some loss for this.
