    Check yalls contract. Is there anything that implies that they can double broker with their sister company? If not it is very misleading to the IC. In reality, the contract says we will give the IC whatever we feel like. Wouldn't be surprised if a class action was started claiming misrepresentation.
    Also, I believe the IC can request a copy of any invoice on a given load. Right?

    I'm trying to get a better understanding of the way the system is going so I'll have a better foundation to base claims off of.

    In the beginning I was told the 65% was from the freight bill.

    But lately ( last 12 months ) I've been told more and more it's based on freight lanes.

    Just trying to connect the dots.

    Right......so, my theory lines up perfectly. At the end of the day, SNI payed exactly what the contract called for less the miles already ran (or run......whatever)

    Problem with that is Schneider Logistics can make it say what Schneider national needs it to say. We have zero right to see what Schneider Logistics gets from customer.

    Better question I suppose is, is anyone tracking or noticing these backhanded business dealings?

    I think ya'll miss the point; this isn't Schneider's first rodeo, they know how to play the game and you don't, simply put. You can request BOL's from now until the end of time, and, absent a fat finger error, they'll be 100% of what the contract calls for. You guys don't get it......they have a well payed staff who's sole mission in life is to keep Schneider out of the court room, and if they go to court, they win. It's just you against a multi-national corporation, and you won't win because you ain't got the bullets. Jus' sayin'.......

    I've seen sub $1 loads from midwest to Northeast, so I'm not buying it's "what the lane pays".
    I'm still with that's it's whatever they want to keep for themselves they keep, we get the rest.

    What they say means nothing. What is written in the agreement means everything.
    Look it over. There may be a case. If both the brokerage and the trucking company are owned by the same people, (and I'm pretty sure they are) and the contract does not specifically state so, I think you might get an attorneys attention for a huge class action.
    I'm going to look over my old agreement.

    but do it in such a way as to stay within the confines of the contract...........which is why whenever you got to an OC, there'll be 100 trailers, and not one empty. I remind you all about what I said on a different thread about chasing 'metrics'. It's always so obvious, so stupid, so counterproductive, and so wrong. BUT, "we made goal......."
