Freedom Express Logistics, Inc. MC 643699 Double brokering, holding load hostage

TIR User — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 15:37:30 +0000

Freedom Express Logistics, Inc. was booked on a load on 02/08/2010 at 10:13AM. We found numerous complaints about Freedom, including reports that it held loads hostage and double brokered. We then informed “Mike Smith,” that is the name the driver gave us, at 10:44 a.m. that he was not authorized to pick up the load. Still, he picked up the load and demanded the total payment up front or he threatened to dump the load. We explained that he was never authorized to have the load, but that we would make the payment when he bumped the dock. This was not acceptable to him. On 2/12/10 we gave Mike Smith the total payment by Tchek and he said he would then deliver immediately. However, 5 hours later he demanded an additional $800 to deliver. We refused to give him the additional $800 amid his constant threats and filed police reports and insurance claims. 5 days after we filed the reports, the truck arrived at the receiver unannounced and delivered the product on 2/16/10 while continuing to demand the $800 through the morning of 2/17. The last conversation with Mike he started laughing and said you will never catch me.
Freedom’s address is 10243 Hillhaven Ave, Apt 9, Tujunga, CA 91042

MC 193751

Bull Transportation Solutions MC#193751 is who Freedom Express MC# 643699 double brokers to they operate out of the same office. the information freedom express put on their contract with me was bogus. the dispatcher for freedom operates with a cell phone it seems to get the loads but bull transportation has a different number but that dispatcher is at that number. they are complicit in their extortion games.
