Flight departed with 500 lbs less than planned/released. Release FOB was to be 22.7 and pushed with 22.5. Load planning sent a fuel slip for less fuel than what the flight was planned for. This is becoming a issue of safety of aircraft getting less fuel than released by dispatch without a phone call from Central Load Planning (CLP); station or pilot.The flight needs to be fueled to the released FOB per dispatch. If there is a discrepancy a phone call needs to be made. No one is speaking to one another and CLP is constantly shorting us fuel.
Flight Dispatcher reports that Central Load Planning is routinely sending fuel slips to flight crews for less fuel than called for on the dispatch release; and the crews are accepting it without question.
