  Absolute predatory delivery service. If I could give zero stars I would. I beg you please do not use this service. All of the reviews are correct, I cannot believe they are still in business. They lie through their teeth regarding your package status. They claimed to attempt delivery. I let them know I have cameras at my door and that cover my entire outside property, as well as the street, and that the day they claim they attempted, NO ONE came. They straight up lied to my face. So now my package is conveniently lost which is BS because as all the other reviews claim, it likely was stolen from one of the crappy drivers they use that probably didnt get a background check and hate their job. So crooked! They will tell you they will call back and they dont, and they really do not care at all so its nothing to them to lie to you. How does any company use this service? I am going to BBB even tho its a lost cause now, its the principle of the matter. If you order from Nordstrom, PLEASE please just pick up in store.

  We received a delivery notification stating that our shipment would arrive on Friday 7/12/24 between 1pm-4pm. My husband took the day off of work to wait for our delivery. By 6pm I waited with Tforce freight customer service for 45 min and was told our delivery driver had no intention on delivering and never made an attempt and made his way back to the facility(he claimed we lived in an apartment and he couldnt deliver it). The supervisor told the driver to turn around and deliver to us. Once the driver arrived he had my husband get in the truck and bring the 1300lbs of decking wood that we ordered from the nose of the truck to the back and I had to carry it from the back of the truck into our home. This is frustrating as there were many obstacles to overcome to even get our scheduled shipment delivered at all. Yet alone my husband having to do the majority of the work. We are asking for a refund on our shipment cost as my husband did the majority of the work. I have been on hold for the past 2 hours trying to get ahold of "accounts receivable inquiries" but they hung up on me.

  Thank you for providing the tracking number, number is 910937451.  Unfortunately, you are not the paying party for this pro. We are billing Advantage Lumber for this move. We are unable to refund anything to you as you are not the paying party.   Any request for a refund or reduction would need to be made to the shipper.

  TForce has billed us 7 invoices, each of these invoices have been brought attention to in both their Accounting and ***************************** None of these invoices have been corrected by TForce. Per our SOAP contract that we've signed with TForce, our shipments are billed by a density-based tariff (weight and dimensions), however, TForce has billed three invoices based on freight class/NMFC. TForce claims they cannot honor the quotes for the three invoices because we are using a TMS platform that generates the quotes. A TMS platform is an industry standard and this platform communicates with TForce when generating quotes. We've been using this platform since our account began with ********************** and we've had no prior problems. TForce is billing us for a shipment that we did not authorize and this was brought to TForce's attention where they admitted it was their own error. TForce has billed us for a redelivery but cannot prove that it was a redelivery, we've requested a driver's report for both the original and redelivery shipment that was done, but have received nothing and the *** that was provided does not state that this shipment was redelivered. I've requested many times to speak with a manager or supervisor or officer of the company to resolve these billing issues but they've not provided us any assistance on getting these bills fixed and have sent these bills to a third-party collections instead.

  A shipment was sent to me on 4/2/24. I received a bill for $71.42 a few weeks later. I never hired tforce to do anything. I called and told them that I had no contract with them and they should send whatever additional bill they are randomly tacking on to the company that hired them. I did not hire them to deliver to me. They continue to send me a bill for services I did not hire them for. Pro number *********

  Placed a freight pick up on Monday with an expected pick up of Tuesday. Wednesday I called and spoke with "*****" at TForce customer service who "spoke to the terminal" and guaranteed a Wednesday pickup by 3. 3pm, came and went and I was not called again. I spoke to **** the supervisor of the Tulsa terminal, and all he had to say was " I apologize, we'll try to be there by 530". During this call he also lied about why we weren't picked up the first scheduled pickup before I corrected him by saying his driver overloaded his trailer. I'm eagerly awaiting to be blown off again, so that our company will NEVER have to use this service again.

  Thank you for bringing this to our attention. TForce Freight makes every attempt to pick up on the requested date and time. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances pick-*** are delayed or missed. For this reason, we do not offer guaranteed pickup services.  I see where your pickup was made Wednesday 6/5 and delivered to its destination 6/6. TForce Freight is sorry for the inconvenience this delay has caused you and your company.

  TForce is trying to collect a bill that we don't agree with.The bill is for redelivery on a shipment sent and paid for by another entity Our receiving hours are M-F from 9am to 5:30pm except for Wed the hours are from 9 till noon.These hours have been the norm for approx. 15 years. The hours are posted on the front door; prerecorded phone messages; our web site, ******* and Facebook.This is not the first delivery from this company. TForce has delived several times before. The drivers should already be aware of our hours.On this delivery, according to the tracking details. An attempted delivery was made at 12:45PM on Wed 3/27/2024. The shipment was redelivered the following morning. There was no mention from the driver of a delivery attempt the day before. We received a mailed billing for redelivery over a month later. It would seem reasonable if TForce arrived at a time the office was closed, they would try and reach out in some manner to contact the business that might have resulted in someone coming back to the office for the delivery. Our phone records don't show any call attempt. No notes were left on the door. And again, no mention from the driver the next following morning.We called TForce about a month ago, after receiving the billing, and explained our situation and position. We thought this was resolved. But today we received an automated call from TForce. We called TForce again. However this time the person we spoke to said they wouldn't dismiss the charges. We did put TForece on notice that we are not be paying this bill. Furthermore, we don't believe TForce has any legal standing as we did not agree or contract with TForce in any matter. We believe TForce is trying to visit their short comings or mismanagement on our small mom and pop business. We also suggested if TForce was firm on it's position, that we should have the matter arbitrated or go to small claims to resolve the issue.

  TForce Freight, picked up a crated metal sculpture that took months to make, a one-of-a-kind, INDOOR metal sculpture. They picked it up at the local *** store, and were supposed to deliver it to the client in ******, ********. An additional fee was charged to us for their service of helping the client place the art inside the garage or home. TForce Freight had the client phone, shipper phone number, and artist phone number on their paperwork. The homeowner had family stay home and await the delivery, the driver of the freightliner delivery truck never came to the door, honked, or called, and instead left the now damaged crate with the metal sculpture uncovered out in the pouring rain, at the end of the driveway next to a busy road in the grass. It was not covered and the interior was soaked. The homeowner came home hours later, saw the damaged delivery out in the rain for hours now without anyone being notified, and covered it. Notice, in the pictures, there is no fence, no dog, but the driver claimed that he could not deliver to the door because of a the fence and dog. There is clearly no fence or obstruction between the roadway and the home in the photos and it's easy to see that the driver chose to leave the damaged crate and expensive metal art only 6-8 feet away from a busy road off their driveway in the wet grass. This piece of art will eventually start to corrode due to exposure to rain and moisture, thus the crate and freight line shipping. It will require shipping back to me, the artist, media blasting and partial disassembly, welding, polishing all over again, and finishing. This is a cost of $10-15,000 studio time, materials, and shipping. We paid to insure the crate $7500 in case of damage. Yet TForce has denied the claim and continued to lie. The photos show where the forklift plowed through nearly 3/4" 7-ply plywood, entering far enough to break off the screwed down wood blocks in the interior of the crate as well.

  This is an on-going issue with the most recent billing adjustment in July 2023. Shipment was originally a pre-paid shipment with a pick up request online through **** Soon a TForce Freight truck arrived and the driver instructed me to go online and print a BOL, which I complied not knowing I was going to be billed whatever price TForce decided on, I did not agree to a shipping price. I then received a bill, invoiced to the pickup location not me which I had to change later, attached as "TForce Original", for $2,461.58. With a few phone calls to customer service I was gifted a 75% first time customer discount. The invoice #********* was first adjusted by increasing to $6,437.55 and subsequently discounted 75% to $2,296.60 making this the second invoice adjustment with the same invoice number and similar pricing, attached as "TForce 75% discount." After being referred to several different accounts receivable employees and attempts to resolve this issue through management requests and requests for explanations on the billing increase before the discount was applied I then received my third invoice iteration with the same invoice number in the amount of $2,337.57, attached as "TF Current." I have exhausted every avenue I know to come to a resolution with the most recent answer received from a TForce representative being "there is nothing I can do about this invoice the amount is as it stands. The discount is 75%." I have yet to understand the accounting methods applied in this situation where the invoice is first increased by *****% before applying the 75% discount offered on an invoice which was never agreed upon in the first place and originally supposed to be prepaid.

  Thank you for bringing this situation to our attention.  The class shown on the *** of 500 is what is driving the cost of $6437.50 (the higher the class the higher the rate per hundred pound) less out intro discount of 75%.  We feel after the review of this dispute the correct class for what was shipped is class 85. TForce is sorry or the delay and confusion in resolving this issue. The Class 500 should have been the first thing to pop out to our CS reps as it is rarely if ever used.  Attached is the *** showing the class 500 listed as well as a corrected invoice with new rate per hundred less intro 75% discount, new total $427.38.  Thank you for giving us an opportunity to resolve this dispute.

  This is concerning Pro Number *********. TForce Freight originally tried to deliver a shipment without scheduling it with me ahead of time, so I was not there to receive it. Even the driver told me that I should've received a call, but I did not. It was an important delivery, so if I knew it was coming, I would've been available. I had to call and have it rescheduled, and now I'm receiving an invoice for $100 for a redelivery charge. This is not something I should be charged for based on never being told the order was coming on that specific day. I called and spoke with a representative this morning who said I need to send a dispute letter, which I also shouldn't have to do, so I asked to speak to a manager. The rep said there is no one for me to talk to, so I gave her my number and asked to have someone call me, which has not occurred as of the time of this submission. Please either remove the incorrect charge or have someone in management call me at ************.
