    Well I just looked up Omni's FMCSA record online. So far nothing's popped up as far as their DOT/MC numbers being suspended or revoked but that could change at any time.
     
    Gunner75 Thanks this.

    Ok guys and gals, I just got off the phone with a good friend.
    The trucks can fuel at any Pilot trkstp and still get their 100.00 cash advance
    TA Petro Loves no... the drivers were told this last Fri.. so they are not stranded stranded. The Bankruptcy was forced early due to 1 creditor who holds notes on some, I repeat some trks. Not all the trks. The hearing is Tues. The payroll funds I was told should approvial from the courts will be released Wensday and drivers and all office people be paid Thurs for last week's payroll
    I was told drivers were and are being kept in the loop. Plus they were given a number to call and listen to any and all conference calls on this matter
     
    Dye Guardian and Western flyer Thank this.

    Last month it was Celadon on the ropes. This month it's Omni's turn to squirm.
    Now's a good time to have an "exit strategy",just in case the company ceases operations.

    That's what's been said on the Facebook post however Rob stated there that he even tried his fuel card at a pilot and it would work

    That means the company must've defaulted on the payments on the trucks with notes on them and they're trying to track said trucks down(hence the fuel card shutoffs).
