Overall impression of Riviera Finance – Neutral
MAIN CONCERNS / HIGHLIGHTS
1) Complaint of small nickel and dime fees popping up
2) It also looks like new drivers will be upsold to other paid services, such as company setup
3) It appears that a long term contract and termination fee will be part of the process
4) No reports filed with RipOffReport.com or PissedConsumer.com
1 – Neutral Report
Neutral comment was posted on TheTruckersReport.com on 9-4-2013.
Author suggested Rivera Financial does not cover new shippers, and they “own” their factoring clients. No specific details were given to support these claims.
2 – Neutral Report (possibly paid)
The full review:
“PROS / This factoring company will buy any invoice from you, regardless of how overdue it may be.
CONS / There is a termination fee if you choose to stop factoring with Riviera and work with another company.
VERDICT / Riviera Finance offers solid services, including nonrecourse factoring and no limit to how delinquent an account can be for Riviera to purchase it.”
