    I considered them as well. But I already started the process with someone else. Do they pay the flat fee, at 3.75%?
    Do they have the documentation fee? And when the late timeframe kicks in? What’s their recourse? Can they actually take money from your account after the broker won’t pay them? If broker does not because he doesn’t want to, are they going to take the money back?
    Do they charge for each invoice and to wire money?

    Factoring companies put a UCC-1 lein on your business. They have the legal rights to your accounts receivable.

    Your brokers/shippers/ customers will get a Notice of Assignments(NOA) that legally tells your customers not to pay YOU! And to send the money to the factoring company.

    There is no way out of a factoring company contract unless the factoring company provides you with a "Release"
    You can be held hostage by whatever terms the factoring company has over your broker's and shippers.

    They can drive you out of business if you ever decide to quit factoring

    Does anybody stay in business over a year after you start factoring! Plus they own you and from what I’ve seen if you try to get rid of them they near put you out of business . nobody will load you Until you get rid of them and get a letter that clears you by then you’re too broke to get it done! This is just my observation and if I’m wrong please help me out.
     
    D.Tibbitt, clausland and Badmon Thank this.
