maybe it may be due to being a cx member for 2 months and already having 3 negative feedbacks ? I don’t think this will be helping you at all. Hopefully lessons are learnt from it ?

of course, owning up to errors is the biggest learning curve and reputable. However the £10 waiting time for 2 hours i agree is unacceptable.

There is bad companies out there, but the thing I’ve learnt it’s a case of biting your lip and not dealing with them in the future.

A lot of drivers co load aswel and turn up to jobs late, obviously the companies giving us work have a reputation to keep so we have to respect that, it will work out mate can be a struggle at times but when you find the right people to deal with it’s plain sailing 📈

if you're looking for back load job's then offer a back load rate you might only be off by a couple a quid but if you are a new member it sometimes takes a lil longer to get the work but once you start getting positive feedback things get easier

Nobody will tell anyone how to run properly until you get right plan and right prices. If someone is starting cheap he will be cheaper…

I started begining of last month om CX made just short of £3k after costs, working 3-4 days a week in a caddy van.
I find it all depends where you are in country and what jobs you are prepared to do?
I live over in North Lincs and do runs towards Machester in a morning giving me options to get jobs back in the afternoon, I also started getting phone calls asking me to do jobs without going through CX.

I’ve been on cx 5 years we earn well out of it on back loads and made some good friends over the years that now come directly to us and average 5/6 k a month on back loads and in lockdown it saved us doing 90k in just over 3 months it’s more about the contacts you make

We are considering joining but it’s a huge amount of money considering the negative comments.

It is hard at first but if you have good feed back that definitely helps, I now have some companies who phone me before posting a job if they see that I'm available. If you get every job you are too cheap & remember that some will quote very low just to cover their diesel home. Where you are can make big difference but on the other hand I sometimes find that there are jobs going from everywhere except from where I am! I wont go into London which restricts me but on the other hand I do have a regular (non cx) customer & I'm topping up my pension so can be choosy as to what I do.
