    Factoring companies have become such a big scam lately, RTS is the worst out there... You really have to pay attention who they approve and who they don't, and you better run if there's no history at all on the broker you're booking a load with

    There is insurance on a truck, trailer, than the authority. There is no way I would pay you 90%. Liabilities sir, and most folks are not a charity. You should thank your friend for being a friend and holding your hand while you think your getting hosed.

    15% is fair.
    10% is a gift from Gods.

    You are a lucky son of a gun.
    You are not being hosed.
    Liability is a huge price to be paid if you get yourself in a lawsuit.
    And you drag your friend in it too.
    Think about it.

    really rough after the 30 days then they don’t pay one of the loads.
    Then you get to call and sit on hold and by the time they answer, you’re ready to fire off on someone.
