    I drive for Landstar and have on two occasions cancelled loads because of language like that. I never agree to any sort of fines or penalties.

    Yeah my first few loads with them over 2 years ago...I was mailing it in...... then I realized that some agents on some of the Rate confirmations have the landstar transfer info on there..... I think the 4 digit code on transfer is LSTR...

    With today's automatic tracking I will not do the call in and do not want them calling me either. I don't mind emails and will send out information when loading and unloading even with tracking. No reason to overkill a persons time when they can look at a computer and see what is going on.

    This was the code I found on internet search (LCGB) when I was trying to figure out the system for them. You may be right as well just what I seen from google search.

    TRANSFLO and they put it on a card. I never drew cash off the card I just used that money to purchase fuel. So it became a fuel card of sorts.

    Every time I hauled for them they send that check call document but depending on the agent don’t care if you call. So if it was a new agent I hauled for I would just asked them directly do you really want a check call. 90% of the ones I hauled for don’t care as long as you deliver the load and let them know if you have any issues and let them know when the load delivers. Now, I hauled quite a few landstar loads but only used a few agents because a lil birdy warned me about most of the bad ones lolol. If I encountered one of the needy ones I just never hauled for them again.

    Unless they've changed, the only way to get qp is through their stupid card.

    I have been using transflo at landstar for 3 years and it works great. True about calling LS and getting an answer. There are so many departments and hold times are often high. Over all its good.
