Our receivable was due end of March - I called yesterday and was told it would be paid sometime next week. I used to deal with the owner of this company directly - Jey - very nice man and honest - unfortunately he passed away a couple months ago in a horrible car accident. I believe his family and/or relatives have taken over - I don't know them. I am constantly receiving credit reference forms to complete so they are seeking credit all over. Not always a good sign...so at this point I really don't know about the new operations of Freight Link. I hope they would conduct themselves as honorably as Jey did previously.
I'm not so sure I wouldn't hold the freight hostage at this point. At the very least, inspect the BL before you deliver to determine who routed it so you know whose freight it actually is.
I can't believe I'm saying this as a broker. The fact that companies pull this sort of crap just makes me sick.
I called the receiver and they specifically said that they are moving the freight with Anito at Flex Freight. This time it is legit. I will have to make sure I stay on top of them for payment.
I'm so glad for this site..I was going to book a TX return to ONT but I think I would rather wait a day or two and find something else...ps I use this site daily to check out brokers before I book with them..I wish more people would do same then maybe we can rid ourselves of the scum.
