    Is anyone having any good experiences with these pod fleets in phoenix?They continue to be a general disappointment for me.I love explaining the same problem to 3 different people and getting back 4 different answers. Do not get me wrong i know they are busy but I'm really unhappy with this system. A call center in India can take my calls and do nothing with them. Things that shouldnt even be questionable like layover/breakdown or detention time im having to pull teeth to get submitted.
    Just wanted to know if anyone out there was having better luck then me with them.

    I am trying to get used to it again when I came back from my trip to China. When I was finally getting used to it, it was completly changed, and not trying to get used to it again. Then again, I do not have any idea how it is between company drivers and L/O.

    i get mighty frustrated with the pod whenever i do have to communicate with headquarters. lots of miscommunication with 4 people playing round robin with the messages. maybe the point is to get people to leave them alone. works from my end. things seemed to go a lot better when it was just one person handling my messages.

    Ive Been on the Pod Since it was first created and to my experience it has never not been a nightmare. But that's just me.
