What's it take to downgrade brokers credit rating?

They pay the factoring companies on time to protect that credit rating. Everyone else waiting for net 30 gets screwed over because they don't/can't affect that credit score.

 

Can you not file on the bond as a single O/O and affect the credit score? I would think it would be a big hit to credit score if one did.

 

I don't know if that affects their credit. Don't really know how credit gets reported. Just know that's the game that is played. Lots of brokers have excellent credit on DAT and "20 days to pay" but people in comments complain about them being slow to pay. You have to take that with a grain of salt but if a LOT of people have the same complaint where there's smoke there's fire.

 

So true. Its pretty regular thing on truckstop to see 20 days to pay and go run credit check elsewhere and it's 40+ days to pay

 

Why blot out the name? Public information

 

Brokers pay truck stop much more than drivers. Why would truck stop/dat hurt the image of those paying them the most?
