    Anyone else know how to get fuel?

    I got a message time ago saying "emergency fuel is no longer active. Use your pre-assigned fuel stops."

    And now, I'm getting loads without pre-assigned fuel stops with messages saying "contact your dm for fuel stops."

    So, I contact my dm and they say they can't assign fuel stops and tell me to call on-road.

    I call on-road and they transfer my call to one of their "other departments" so I can get fuel.

    Once transferred to this so-called "other department" I hear a pre-recorded message saying "this fuel option is no longer available, goodbye."

    So, how can I get fuel?...or does Swift not want to make deliveries anymore?

    I just let customer service reps know via macro 22 the load is running late by 6 hours until the truck can be fueled.

    Something is fishy. It's no way a company that large is hanging you out to dry being unable to get fuel. I can't imagine that they'd risk a load being late over fuel. Could you not get to your fuel stop?
