getting paid on my comdata card? hows this work?

Why would I muddy up my corporate finances every time I fuel, and I typically get .30 per gallon discount with my card. Right now it's .50-.70 discount depending on the location. I also don't get paid, I get a settlement. If I choose to direct deposit some of those funds, all it takes is a phone call and punching a few keys. As a company driver, I can see the reluctance to mix work and personal, but that isn't the case for the OP.

 

When I got paid through comdata, I was a company driver and yes it went directly to the card. The company I worked for did not have direct deposit, however you could set up direct deposit through comdata but this meant after the money went on your card it could take another 24-72 hours for it to hit your account. Very inconvienient. So in my case having the wife run a check to the bank made getting my money faster.

Now a days I don't understand why there are companies out there that don't have direct deposit.

As as far as fueling as an O/O company I lease onto takes my fuel directly from my settlement and using their network saves me anywhere from $.20-.50 at the pump so need need to use a credit card

 

Yeah...and the hackers and governments can't wait. Don't know why people are so willing to throw their personal info into the ether or get/use a card for every darn thing.

 

Comdata will charge you a fee to access your own money. You won't be happy.

 

Funny, they don't charge me a fee, write one or one hundred checks, zero fees. They do charge $!.00 for direct deposit.

 

It's $1 per transfer for me. That's not bad

 

The fees come when using the card at ATM's,checking your balance..etc. you will never be charged a fee for writing a check to deposit in your account and any fee you get charged from a truckstop is the fee the truckstop charges...not comdata
