    What an eye opening experience. I wanted to try a lease purchase program and thought I would give it a shot at C R England. New truck, potentially a lot of miles, should be able to make some money. What a sap I turned out to be. for the first couple of months they will run you, as if to make a good impression. Then the miles get tougher and the only way you can make it is to either hire a second seat or become a trainer. DO NOT BECOME A TRAINER!!!! No sleep, hard miles and small (if any) pay. Over the last 5 weeks I managed to bring home a total of just over $500! Don't ask for help from the company because if they answer the phone (they reaally love their voice mail) or respond to a qualcomm message the chances are that they will say there is nothing they can (or will) do. Finally, after 10 months in this wonderful organization, I have packed it in. Imagine, running 4000 miles and getting paid $32!! Good for them, bad for you. Avoid getting involved with this company at any and all costs (mostly yours).

    Yeah, there seems to be a lot of love here for CRE.:biggrin_25513:

    I see this is your first post, so welcome to the forum. Hope you find something good, soon. Sucks to be without work, particularly at this time of year.

    Wow... sorry to hear that this happened.

    I have always been very leery of O/O Lease Option programs. It seems like a good idea but in the end the company is the one coming out ahead.

    Lets hope others read this and learn from you mistake and best of luck to you.

    I only wish there was some way to get this posted on a larger forum or a way to get others considering it to take a look

    I understand that but we need to get word out more to anybody considering a company to work for. This board has a lot of really useful information in it.
     
    Baack Thanks this.

    I"m sorry you got hosed, but the reason this stuff continues is because there is a sucker born every minute.

    Just this last week a guy posted on this forum that he was going to go with the CRE FLEECE plan. He didn't give a #### what any body said against it he was going. He said that every body here was full of it, and we're all haters.
    He was not going to listen to a bunch of naysayers like this forum.
     
    Big Don Thanks this.

    I got jacked on a FLEECE purchase plan with a very small carrier to the tune of about $30,000.


    JUST SAY NO TO THE FLEECE PURCHASE PLAN!!!
