Can I file against the brokers bond?

You seem like a reasonable guy, so here's some sound advice... Try not to use threats of lawsuits unless it is your last resort and you know for a fact that you are in the right. As a matter of fact, don't ever threaten a lawsuit, because, it gives the other party time to prepare well in advance of your filling. Also, treat people that are obviously trying to help you as if they're really close friends. It'll get you a long way in life.

 

Also TONU is the same as a layover almost invariably.

 

Same thing. I wouldn't bother trying to collect that money from them, I'd bet they hang up on you when you identify yourself, I know I would.

 

Usually,if you sit for more than 5 - 6 hrs you get "layover". TONU is truck ordered not used, but, in my experience both are sometimes used interchangably especially in a screwed up situation like yours. If you do get hold of the guys tomorrow, I'd be as humble as a mother ####er, apologize and explain that you were working from bad advice and that if they are still willing to work with you that you'd like to move past this incident.

 

Oh well you burned that bridge probably.
