National Freight Forwarding/Gilson Freight/Tesla Logistics

Bit late to the party but I can't believe what these shitbags put you guys through! Mike, Mark and Norm have always been stand up guys and stick to their word - something these newbs wouldn't know about if it bit them in the ass!
NFFI are DNU for me, and I'll make sure the 4 other companies in my GOC don't use them either!
I would also consider reporting them to the TIA, which will seriously limit the amount of US brokers that will do business with them, as well as reporting the whole gamut to Loadlink.
Hope things work out for you!!!

Hi Folks,

We have found ourselves in a pickle and looking to see if anyone on here is hauling this load.

We gave a load to Gilson Freight (based in Niagara Falls) from Ontario to BC. Was supposed to deliver yesterday. Got the usual "truck is broken down" routine. Today, Devinder from National Freight Forwarding calls our customer saying that they have the load and it is in quarantine because it was given to them by a fraudulent company. We call Devinder directly and he claims this load was given to him by Tesla Logistics. We tell Devinder that we will pay him directly since he is hauling the load. He sends us pictures of the freight, BOL and the truck. We explain we will pay him once he delivers and sends us the signed BOL and an invoice for the amount we were paying Gilson Freight. Devinder then tells us that he has 3 loads with Tesla totaling 23k and we must pay him the entire 23k before he delivers our load.

It is a longshot, but does anyone on here have a driver named Gurdeep Singh that is currently hauling a load from ON to Abbostford, BC?
Please look at the Inco Term in order to win your load back.

Look at the Inco Term agreement between supplier and shipper.

I feel for you my friend.

We are STILL entangled in our mess. These scammers just don't care about how ethical business is done in our industry/country. They have zero regard for deadlines, customers, drivers, other companies, laws, protocols, etc.

I just hope enough light is being shined on all of these types that the pendulum starts to swing from evil to good eventually. I still say something on CBC Marketplace or the like would go a long way. Name the names, companies, confront their owners on TV, etc. It might help them scatter.

Get ready to spend 12 hours per day on your mess for the next month. It is that time-consuming trying to detangle from their web...
Hi Mike,

Can you check your PM on this.

Please be aware that on Link, National Freight Forwarding also has a second account National Freight Forwarding Logistics. Both are now blocked. Sukh confirms it is "sister company".

They took a load from us from BC to Toronto. Updated us throughout transit with driver location and as delivery was getting closer driver took sick was hospitalize and load was delayed. They broker the load and moved by rail and sold it for $ 100.00 less than we paid them. ******DO NOT USE******
