STAY AWAY from TRIPLE C TRANSIT (Weatherford, Tx)

Oh man, so many issues...
Don't know the company, don't care to....

Ok, first. Escrow should be just that. It's a 3rd party holding the funds If they never set up one leave
When that unknown broker called, the correct answer should be "I have no idea what you are talking about, call whoever you booked the load with."
After the first time the business hours became an issue, you should have left.
If they pay for shop work on your truck, that IS a loan. It's your truck, go where you want.
Wanna give some examples of charges they have, that's not in the contract?

 

That's my point. They did NOT set up an escrow account for you. They set up a deposit account and called it an escrow account. By definition an escrow is held by a 3rd party,
I'm mostly just pointing that out for others. If they get a hold of a company that has an escrow account, but it's not held by a 3rd party they need to run away.
As for all the charges that were not specified in your contract... Sue them to recover that money, if ion fact it's not in the contract somewhere.

 

dude i mean, u put your self in tht situation. u had a good idea wht u was gettin yourself into. took a gamble and back fired on u

 

Previous coworker ran for them, left when he dropped a motor and is running aggregate to rebuild funds.

He did fairly well there, 75% of load with 100/week rental on a fairly new flatbed.
I'll ask him about the escow issues tomorrow. His story matches 80% of owner op failures. Dropped everything he had into the truck and a new set of tires, 2 months later dropped a block and couldn't afford the rebuild.

Key benefit is that they let him bring on his 97 without any issues.

 

So what does that mean? Are you saying EVERY TIME someone gets screwed, it is their own fault for "putting themselves in that situation"? Ridiculous, over-the-top, broad, mindless, statement!
In this industry, you can read, read, read, ask question, clarify, hire a lawyer to read, read, read...ultimately sign on when everything looks legit; and get screwed any way---and if you don't know that @johnwayne187 apparently this is either your first year, or you found the perfect company straight out of the gate, or you're oblivious, or all of them.

 

the company i work for is not perfect at all. im lookin to leave them soon but currently on the fence lookin at other companies. grass is not always greener on the other side, i have to always keep in tht mind

 

Triple C is a great company to work for. I have driven for them for quite a while now. My dispatchers do not work weekends but if I need them I have a way to get a hold of them. My truck stays rolling thanks to them. As far as an escrow account yes they pay with the company credit card and take it out off my escrow amount, which is available to me at anytime. They do send me to the shop that I am going to be able to get the work done at in a reasonable time at a reasonable cost. They don't want me taken advantage of by a mechanic. They have never told me I couldn't get repairs done anywhere else. I have always made money with them. And have turned down loads without an issue. I just want everyone to know that just because one driver can't make it work that does not mean the company is the problem.
