    Yeah, I was wrong. $150 is all it's supposed to have.

    If you use any money from the comdata card for truck expenses you MUST turn in the reciepts, or it will come out of your pay. I got direct deposit so i could seperate the company's money and MY money, plus i can actually pay my bills with ease using my debit card. If you need oil or other things use the "additional products?" option at the pump. Then as long as it's something PAM authorizes you can get it added to the fuel purchase, someone already mentioned this, but i thought i would try to clarify it a little bit. Also, save your oil, coolant, and washer fluid containers! If you need these items, walk into one of the company shops and they can fill them up for you, then you don't have to deal with all the crap at the truckstop that just tends to eat up more time. Always grab extra wiper blades and bulbs too!

    I bet you are lovin the way PAM operates with this. COMDATA is the biggest SCAM in the world and you have to PAY to cash your checks? CALL Road Rescue for everything and make them issue you a PAY ORDER and an EXPRESS CODE for those things. DON"T take the advance. They will tail pipe you, forget you helped them and you will be Trans-Flowing for weeks trying to recover stuff like this. Its THEIR truck, make THEM FIX IT. That advance is for EMERGENCIES only. I took them for five months and screwed myself, but I needed to eat because they were pinching miles, giving me cruddy runs and truck break downs and other things were constantly eating my paycheck. NOW I am teaming and its evening out with some better miles, but PAM pretty much blows.

    Yes direct deposit is available, and can be split up among many different accounts.
