    I worked for them for almost three years and I did not make any money with them. Every time I get my settlement they always came up with a new policy to get more money out of me. So, on December 27 the locked me out from being dispatched because my medical was getting ready to expire on January 4. I was book already with a government load that was paying 5500 and they did not unblock me for the load. Now went in to the DOT doctor ro renew my medical card and at the time I was in Lyrica and Trimidol which I explained that it was only temporary. So, the DOT doctor said get a letter from your doctor stating that she will take me off those meds. So the first letter she gave was written on a prescription paper and she stated that she was taking me of those meds and that I was fine without them. I faxed that first copy to Greatwide and they was asking me why I was on them and I told them why and they said ok but we can't unblock you until they received that letter, I said okay its cool so the doctors office called and said the letter was ready the next day. So I got it and I sent it over to them and they said that they was terminating our contract because the illness could come back later. They never called when it was an error on my settlement, but let me ole them some money they will call my phone a hundred times just for me to sign that promissory note. My wife found my loads for me and they still got 25% and then they started taking 25% out my lay over pay. Then they went from giving 50% on fuel to, we going by the national average. They went up on my trailer fee which I started paying 185 dollars a week. They always come after Drivers but never once go after their agents for double brokering and so forth. I will not recommend this company to no one. They will eat you alive. RUN RUN RUN RUN!

    From what I understand, you have a choice to book your own loads or use agents. If you book your loads your in control. I'm actually looking to go over and book my freight. What section of greatwide should I apply for

    Central dispatch don't work as a agent driver, you can look for the load and tell the broker are to hold the load for while you call any agent to book it and Bill it so you can pull it, let me put it out clear so you get me is there money here yes ,are you going to make what I am making over night no , look one's you get here they are going to give you your driver code that will allow you to get on the internal load and will allow you to use 360 load broad for free then you will have to download there app it's called gem app now with that you see we every cent of your money Centrala out line everything from your load your pay witch agent book the load for you and yes you can get the rate con if you want some agent will include you on the feed so you see , you will have a in-house DM witch he are she job is to guard you from failing here ,if they see you are not making they will step in and try to show you a thing are two but if you have never broker loads there is a good chance you will fall apart and yes burn ,but this guy got burn because he did not know what he was doing, first the fuel cards we use is 40% not 50% that is not so next 35% on Central is what you will be getting next card will allow 35% to only buy. Fuel and 25$ per day advance, now if you work for on agent witch I think is what he did that is why he said 50% witch is not so 40% cash card witch allow you to do what ever you want to do with the cash on the card as long as you run your load I am no longer on agent driver witch is not good if you don't know the agent so now I get 35% on my card when I run my load for the week I have 850 balance on it witch is my personal money now an Thursday is pay day for me I have 2750 more at the end and that is after my quality high payment so as you can tell I am pulling over 3000 per week as I said earlier you will not there were I am but if you run your truck smart you will take home 2000 plus some weeks but you must learn there system first , they will tell you 5000 per week is were you need to be don't fall for that set your target I set my target it 7500 and would not stop until I find it so know money is here you will have to find, an Central agent will call you all day offering loads be careful of the GA office they look at play games other from CA office have good paying load 2$per miles Tampa FL office there not bad PA office is also OK on there is some in Chicago not bad loom at the one pro is the start of there name you will have a list good luck there just remember this your dime not there
