Reefer load possible claim

Once the bills are signed it's game over , was this load factored? Send the broker a picture of your ding dong and tell em to pound sand

 

If pounding sand ain't enough, tell him to kick rocks too. OP, unless it was ice cream, there ain't nothing to worry about. I wouldn't give him a thing. You better get ready for a fight, because they are going to try not to pay one way or the other. If you give him the report, he will say temp discrepancy and reduce or not pay the rate. You don't give it up, they will try to withhold too. Oh.....and by the way, tell your driver not to talk so much. He could have said, "I was taking a nap."

 

He can't file a claim unless the load is damaged.....it evidently wasn't.

 

He can't file a claim, the receiver has to.

 

9 months to file a claim. Temp can be hidden damage.

 

Also was the product exempt or non exempt I'd be worried if it was exempt in the broker has yet to pay

 

Signed clean bills, is your saving grace. Explain that the bills were signed clean. Don't send him anything. You insurance will deny the claim because your delivery was received in good order and at the proper temperature, otherwise it would have been noted on the bill. Advise the broker that if he doesn't pay in the time allotted on your rate confirmation, you will file a claim against his bond.

 

Tell your driver to put a cork in it , wow what a onion.
Maybe going forward we can all learn how to not Invite a claim , that was drilled in us old timers heads.
Company drivers have no buisness talking to anyone besides breakdown, dispatchers etc , how did the drivers get put in the middle of this broker shipper receiver dilemma , to many ##### to kiss as it is.
