TQL taking up to 9 months to pay out.. RIPOFF

I delivered a load for TQL and was 60 cases short.. The load WAS NOT a driver count and the shipper sealed my truck and I arrived with the seal intact. TQL does not want to pay due to the case count being short. REALLY?! I understand if the cases were damaged or etc. But short?? How am I responsible for the shipper miscounting his product? Now TQL won't pay until investigation is over which may take up to 9 months! I delivered safely and on-time and this is what I get in return?? This is like the fifth time TQL tries to rip me off! One sorry company to haul for even though I'm one of their high ranked carriers.. VERY UNFAIR of how they treat trusted carriers who do everything on their end to deliver the best.
