It's a joke sometimes, isn't it?
I signed up with a new one last week and ran a load, I was happy to get 30 day check on it so I didn't even ask about payment terms. Not until I emailed accounting since the broker didn't know did I get a form sent to me that says:
Paper check fee: $20
Comcheck fee: don't remember, but expensive
EFT fee: $20
ACH free
Huh? EFT and ACH are the same thing in my mind.

Closest i did to OTR was the oilfield in Ohio living in a motel for a month at a time. That last week always felt slow mo Lol count down to blast off
Edit. @Scooter Jones that sucks. Maybe just an internal f up on their part. Done a few for them and got paid within 45D.Tibbitt and Scooter Jones Thank this. -

Phone rings at 0445 today. On the other end is a fellow from the after hours brokerage team of the load I was under.
In a broken eastern Indian accent he says, "hello, has your driver (me) arrived at the consignee yet?"
I say, "why would I have arrived at 0445 for a 0745 appointment"?
He says, "your appointment is at 0445 Eastern time."
I say, " no it's not, it's at 0745 Pacific time."
This went on for about 5 minutes, round and round we went. He finally conceded he had made a mistake, but then grilled me for another 5 minutes about my exact location at the time LOL. SMH.
I told the broker agent about it and she apologized profusely and said their after hours personal is in India.PPNLE, D.Tibbitt, Brettj3876 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Did he, by chance, understand that he was completely backwards AND wrong? 0445 Eastern is 0145 Pacific, or I've had a really long day.
