    IMO it got stupid the moment fake anonymous accounts became ok for unsubstantiated personal attacks, reposted Facebook images without permission, rumors, and so on.

    Bill has been on this site for over six years and put it here. Made real contributions. From starting out as a fleece operator, to one truck with authority, to a substantial fleet.

    Shame on TTR for allowing this, and nearly every other recent F2F topic, get derailed into an anonymous dirty laundry Bill bashing party. It's no wonder a lot of formerly active users just aren't any more. Who the hell wants to post a success story just to have the peanut gallery tear it down just so they can feel better about their own life of bad decisions and failure, which they probably just blame on everyone else anyway.

    Maybe Bill should just offer a dollar a mile lease and rent the operator a $1.50/mile truck to do it with, and everyone will like him again?

    Did I miss the memo that we are supposed to verify information that is posted on TTR by members? Honestly Red, you've been here long enough to know how TTR works, and that any driver frustrated by a situation has a place to vent those frustrations. If you don't like it, don't read it.

    Bill has done exactly what we tell any other company asking to have information removed, he's addressed it.

    When a company doesn't like what is printed on TTR, we give them two options, either sign up and address the post, or contact the member and ask them to have us remove the post.

    I get really tired of seeing people jumping on new members for having an opinion or a different experience than someone else did.

    I think that Bill is very capable of taking care of himself in this situation.

    I disagree. It's very relevant. Out of curiosity, are you o/o or company?

    April...2017?

    I can't speak for the other anonymous accounts, but this one represents good friends who are afraid to go public and have their already delinquent payments go to the back of the queue, but feel sick seeing the churn of new hires getting duped by rosy F2F reviews.

    The facebook images I posted were not meant as an attack, but instead to help substantiate claims I knew wouldn't be quite so credible from a new account.

    Until they aren't. Multiple late payments are a HUGE red flag to someone extending credit:

    Lenders charge quite a bit more interest to take on that risk, but F2F contractors don't even get a late fee.
