I hired a carrier to transport a shipment of frozen foods last month. Yesterday, i was contacted by the carriers owner operator. He advised me that he had not been paid for 2 months by the carrier, and had not been paid for my shipment. I advised him i had already made payment to the carrier.
He says he is the end carrier , and is a sub contractor of the carrier. He uses the carriers licenses. it was his position that the carrier i hired double brokered the shipment to him and he can collect from my client if i don't pay him. Any opinions? I can't afford to make a double payment
