PlatinumX - Surrey, BC Double Broker

They used Apple Transport - also in Surrey. The invoice was for $5400, PlatinumX apparently paid Apple $2000 via e-transfer - can't confirm if the confirmation they sent me was doctored. Apple factored the whole invoice amount and collections agency notified us.

They like to give their "sister company" GRD Transport or to GRH Transport shipments if they can't complete the shipment. They will pick up, do the long haul (not completely sure about the long haul part) then give it to one of them to finish the job.
We called him out on it, they were obviously very upset as he thought it's completely fine to do that without letting us know, they used their trailer but had one of their "sister companies" to deliver the shipment with their trailer.
Anyway, long story short they mentioned that he'll have collections reach out to both our shipper & receiver if we don't choose to pay Platinum for the "job" they did and to put a lien on their business.
We were going to pay them we never said we weren't, we wanted to know the story as to why they gave it out but they went into defense mode right away.
They've been DNU in our books since March - 2025.
