Broker will not do quick pay on first load....

What is the game here? subject line says it all.They said to protect from fraud. me no understando .How is the game palyed.I do not get it

 

Did you deliver it yet?

 

no not yet,waiting on the rate con,to load it up on monday after i deliver in Ames IA

 

Some do that to make sure there is no OS&D and the customer pays them correctly.

Did you ask them for a fuel advance?

 

Is this your literal first load, or just your first load with the broker? I'll do quick pay for new carrier partners, but I get real leery of that if we're talking about less than a month of active time on the authority.

 

No Sir not our first load. This is my first load to haul with this broker.can you pm about stuff like that being a broke or is that against rules on here?

 

You can ask one of the mods to try and set something up. Be advised, though- per forum rules, we are unable to conduct anything resembling business. And that includes sharing of my contact information in any form or fashion.

That being said- there's a number of reasons I could see not extending quickpay on load #1. Mostly it's to make sure any charges are squared away, first.

 

This is fairly common for small brokers. If you can't float just one load for 30 days is also a bad reflection on your business.

I do QP on most loads and I'm leary of new brokers and like getting paid quick and easy. Just got a load two weeks ago for a new broker. No quick pay. Contract said 30 days. Does direct deposit. Agent said they pay in about 10 days. Did the load standard pay. Money was deposited 8 days later for no fee. Definitely going to consider them again in the future.

 

You should. That's rare. I don't do QP unless it's 2% or less and that's mostly with the biggest outfits. You can tell a good small one when they pay right away. Money in the bank already.
OP, they look at us the same. It's not a good business plan to be desperate. I understand that's hard right now though.

 

Faster than expected payment without a fee is a good sign that you are dealing with the originating broker of a load. Scummy double brokers are working on such thin margins that they need peter to cough up pauls cash and that takes time.
