Message:: [QUOTE="dosgatos, post: 12316508, member: 96159"]All loads have fsc but they don't show the breakdown in the advertised gross (all in) rate. You find out the amount during your call wIth the agent. Fsc is calculated based on avg fuel prices by region posted each week for the previous week. If there is a fuel price spike, the fsc can be (not always) adjusted after the fact.No such thing as a bad agent but there are owners that don't take the time to understand what they are signing up for.Also, listed rates unless they are with a bonified direct agent (some posers) are often bid rates. This is not a "click on a load, get a load" kind of place. Not sure the number, but heard something like 30% of new bco's wash out in the first 6 months. I don't have super secret agents that call me at home, not in with the in crowd. Work exclusively from the board. I talk to 210 619 and 531 agents every day. I don't take much that's offered but some times they have load offers well above average. They call because I pick up, don't treat them poorly and keep the door open. (Not the left door) Have you considered Schneider?[/QUOTE]
