Bruenger Co Lease

Well, we're not happy. They took out all the insurances for the week he was in orientation, so double insurances taken out and they took out the truck payment, too, so, yeah...

 

That's no bueno, kickin somebody before they have a chance to get up.

 

Yeah, my husband is really depressed right now because of it. His biggest thing is being able to provide for his family, so the worry that things will be tight, once again, just eats him alive. I'm trying to keep him positive, and hopefully they will fix things for him, otherwise, he's going to lose his ####! For any that don't know, Bruenger takes out the truck insurance and OCC insurance on the 1st and 3rd settlements of the month and the bobtail insurance on the 3rd. Well, they took out all three twice on the first settlement... They didn't explain ANYTHING to him, just gave him a paper that tells what weeks things are taken out, so to take them all out double on the first settlement is NOT GOOD! We weren't expecting the truck payment to come out on this first one, either. He was told it would be 10 days from the time he left the lot until they would take a payment. Well, settlement day was the 10th day, so they took it out.

 

Maybe ask the boss whether there can be an adjustment?

 

Yeah, he's going to call tomorrow and find out what's going on.

 

Keep looking ahead. Things have a way of evening out

 

Our week was going to suck, but thankfully Bruenger is letting George drop this load off at the yard for someone else to take it the rest of the way, so we could get this trip on this weeks settlement. As long as they don't take out more than they are supposed to for insurances and stuff again, he should net about $1900 for the week, before taxes. It's good because my work has slowed down considerably. I usually only bring in about $200 a week, but these past two weeks has only been half that.

I don't count my income when figuring our budget, so my income SHOULD just be extra, but it's also to help offset when he has a slow week. Hopefully he continues having good weeks and my work picks back up. I just need more people to have car accidents...

As far as them taking out double insurances on his first settlement, I don't think he's called them to go over it yet. He's heading to the yard, so he might wait until he's there to say something. That or he just is too stressed out and doesn't want to chew their heads off, so he's trying to relax first.
