How come you haven't joined the food fight over on the politics forum??

Good to see you again also, GH. Glad to see that you have retained the oh-so appropriate avatar! Sure reminds me of the old days on here huh? As you can see, I am back in the lower 48 after an extended illness forced me back. I'm fine now, but it was a tough fight. Perhaps more about that at another time.................
Back to the subject at hand: Malaki86, a personal note of thanks to you for this thread and the info I garnered from such. I hadn't checked my DAC/HireRight report for a couple of years. (see my post in the old DAC sticky thread) I was shocked and extremely pissed off to find out that I had been surreptitiously "DACCED." Yep, old Belpre himself had been bent over and had absolutely no idea. Thank goodness my personal reputation and known work history were used to get me back to my beloved fuel hauling job. If it would have been looked at through DAC/HireRight............I hate to think where I might be right now.
Long story short for now. I successfully disputed the erroneous information and it was removed by DAC/HireRight. I encourage all of you to take a moment and request a copy of your DAC report. You no longer have to submit a request by snail mail. It can be done online at
Request a Copy of Your HireRight Consumer or DAC Report Please take a moment to protect your career/CDL and take the time to obtain this information.
While I have my own opinions/thoughts about how DAC/HireRight operates. In all fairness to them. I must admit that they were very helpful and kept me updated continuously throughout the dispute process. I'm not sure if this is how they operated before the FTC case noted above by the OP. But they were completely responsive to my situation.
I wanted to get this on the board before I blew it off or just didn't have the energy to "go there." This story has so many more angles and twists. I'll try to stay a bit more active and pass on more of the story.
To those of you that are, or have been a victim of DAC. There is hope.
Yep, ColdFrostyMug was right. Controversial? For sure. He was so right that he was banned from the board for his views on the state of over-the-road truck driving. Nothing more. But he was right. I can say that now as I have enough years and experience in this industry to render an informed opinion.
GHobo, GMAN, WindWalker, OTX (rookie tanker), MacPuppy, Rhog and the rest of you. Hello and good to see you all again.
Let's leave it here for now
