Yes it matters especially if you don't get paid. Then you don't know which bond you file against, not to mention most shippers don't want their freight double brokered in case of a claim, they don't know who's insurance to file against.

If you book and deliver a load with broker a who got the load from broker b, broker a is who owes you money, not broker b.
In the case of insurance, broker a assumes the responsibility for the load for the consignee when they book it from broker b, the insurance is covered by the carrier they broker the load to.Wasted Thyme, Rideandrepair, God prefers Diesels and 1 other person Thank this. -
If you're with a dispatch service try to cut ties with them as soon as possible. Leaving money on the table that way.

As r&r said, it isn’t illegal.
It really is a breech of contract between two parties technically speaking but here is thing, you only get screwed if you accept a load below your operating cost plus or get this mindset that you deserve every penny.
If the load makes you money, who cares what others make, you deal with your real numbers.
This is where people get hung up, you wait for that $2.75/mile and pass up several $2.65/mile loads.blairandgretchen, roshea, Lite bug and 1 other person Thank this. -
