Anyone dealing with same issue
Right now 80 plus days no payment and not answering calls & emails
 
We are sitting at 70 days with 2 promises for payment they missed. I would be cautious extending credit, I think they are overextended. A company of this size not paying, that’s the only reason I can come up with.

I worked as a contracted Freight Broker for Docktor Freight which became Freight North Carriers from Oct 2016 to Nov 2024. My experience was mostly positive until Docktor was purchased by the Pioneer Group. Throughout my contract I was paid commission only. They proposed a new contract early November that was not in my best interest to accept due to changes in pay structure and clauses that would have me held liable for all monies O/S by any customers I would bring in despite me following their stringent credit protocols for onboarding. When I advised I would not be signing the new contract and moving on, I was told they will not be paying my last 2 invoices. After several attempts to collect on my own, including several unanswered emails I sent them to collections on Monday. In my last few months there, many of the carriers I brokered loads to complained about O/S invoices sitting over 90 days. I feel this is an ongoing and growing issue with the Freight North group of companies.

That is insane. The best way to collect is to go public, they care about their reputation and would all of a sudden pay you quickly.

We just hired a driver from Freight North and they messed her around so bad she was going to leave the industry for good. We thankful to have her with us.

The Dubinsky's are well known around AB for screwing truckers. They have broke so many guys over the years.

FYI, I heard yesterday that Freight North Logistics is being dissolved and moved in with Freight North Carriers who used to be Docktor Freight and Remwan Carriers. I would exercise caution when dealing with this group of companies.

...any update on payment. Have 2 outstanding invoices over 60 days...and payables are not responding to our requests.
I saw one pilot company was owed $5000 from 200 days ago, he had to go public on social media to get paid. They don’t care about you, but they do care about their public perception so hit them there.

Please advise Freight North on what we should do next. Sent invoices into email address that was noted on dispatch confirmation...with no returned response for updates . Now as per this note, we send invoices to the email address you have noted and finally received a response - we need to send invoices to a different address - apfnc@freightnorth.com Looking for payment on two invoices that are now at 70 days. Welcome your comments.
