Complaint / Review
Swift Transportation
Ripoff

MY name is James. I have drove for swift 3 times over a 5 year period. I came back to swift in october. I was on devision 5 otr. I got 3 tickets in their truck in calif all at different times in calif. Wwift would never send me to calif to take care off these tickets knowing I had them.

They ingored all the attempts. I told them I had to go to court.instead of sending me west they kept me going past after 3 months of running no days off they turned me west. I was so tired I took 4 days off in oklahoma getting a load to phoenix from oklahoma. I headed west, getting into phoenix dropping my load at consignee. I went to terminal trying to get home to yucca valley calif.

In phoenix I was placed on safety hold. They said you never went to court. Come on now they knew I had court dates I was stuck in phoenix. The 2nd day in phoenix security comes out and said clear your truck you are no longer a swift employee. Packing my stuff they put it on a golf cart and trailer where I was escorted to front of the terminal and put on the street.

I went to see my recuriter to get a bus ticket home. Security stopped me and said I would be arrested if I came back on the property. What did I do? They used me got my driver lic suspended and put me on the street.

I tried to file for unployement. They say I'm still an employee. I can't work cause my lic is suspended. They won't give me unployement but yet they sent me on the street and said I was terminated.

The games has to stop. I have a wife and 2 kids. I was treated like a criminal like I did something wrong. They refused to send me west to take care of these tickets. The day they put me out of my truck my driver manager in lancaster tx quit? He took care of me. It took the rest of the money I had in my account to get home. A u haul 250 dollars, I got home with 20 dollars in my pocket and a hungry wife and 2 hungry children.

They played with my life. This is not right. While uncle jerry lives high on the hog I have no income and a house I was buying in oklahoma for my family which I'm gonna lose now cause it's more important to get the load there than getting a employee to court.

I'm mad. I never had a late load, always a day early. I was on a hot fleet. All I took was hot loads have to deliver on time or swift will lose the account. Save the account not the employee.

If you got a lawyer on this tell him to hammer on it and let swift know we mean business. Jave to cheer my self up somehow. Just to let you know I have been driving for 20 years and never had the problems I have had with swift. What do I do now? I'm a driver; I need a steering and my foot on the pedal. They need to pay these tickets for not getting me back to calif for court and then some. I lost everything on account of them. Well thanx for your time sorry for being so long
