Double Broker

[loaders]

I believe that Diesel 1 indicated that he had worked successfully with this carrier in the past. Knowing that his previous dealings had been reputable, why should he believe this instance would be any different? Of course, the moment he found out that this carrier had re-brokered the load to someone else, he should and did work to protect the interests of his customer. I have never been a fan of blaming the victim, especially if the victim did nothing wrong, which in my opinion, is what happened here.

I ignored nothing, diesel1 as a broker knew it all from the moment shipper advised that the truck arrived is
not empty.



Yes you did, the ID of the carrier is on both sides of the truck and visible to the shipper upon arrival.
Further you disclosed that shipper, receiver and yourself came up to a decision to proceed with splitting the cargo. Well, find out who the actual carriers are and pay them the fair rate. What is wrong with that?

As a broker, you bare the responsibility before your client to find them the requested equipment and a carrier with proper authorities and insurance. Well, it did not happen! Diesel1 had hired Carrier A who acted as a broker rather than carrier (SUCH ACTIONS ARE PARASITES OF THIS INDUSTRY). I know it happens allover. Whatever happens after hiring Carrier A is the fault of a broker who engaged in dealing with non reputable to him/her party. @loaders, Had the double brokering not occurred in the first place, THIS IS NOTHING BUT EXCUSE. Why would a broker get a decent earning/commission, is it only for posting the load on the Link and answer the call form the carrier? There should be more to it, isn't that so?

It seems like you are ignoring a lot of the facts outlined in the original post
