We are a mobile truck repair company. Yesterday we were called by Reuben at Desert Coastal Transport Inc. We were told that they need us after hours to go repair their refrigerated trailer. We were asked to bring an new battery because the refrigeration unit would not start and it was loaded with frozen food. So we dispatched a technician to pickup a battery and go to Torrance CA. to install it and then check to see if the battery was charging. This was a new customer so it was C.O.D., just when we were arriving with the new battery to repair the trailer refrigeration unit we received a call from Reuben to call off the repair and that they got the refrigeration unit started, we were told that they intended to pay us for our time. I was then told that his boss, who goes by J.V. needed to pay the invoice in the morning. After about 20 or more phone calls J.V. calls saying that they would pay roughly 1/3 of their bill. Having no real recourse we received $95.00 out of bill for 282.50. The company knew we were not holding their trailer until the bill was paid so they decided to rip off our company. I hope anyone considering working for giving the work will know that this company does not keep their word and are not trustworthy. We sprang into action to repair their trailer after hours and trusted then to pay us for our services, that did not happen, beware.

Our service company had already picked up parts for his repair and were at their location when the call to cancel came in. The caller told us explicitly that we would be paid for our time.

In regards to this compalint ,We called within the time frame to canceL also, it took them for ever to even call us back that Jet Fleet was on the  way ,so we decided to look for other options . I dont understand why they would charge over $250.00 for service that was never performed and we still paid them $95.00. CANT COMPLAIN WHEN YOU MADE $95.00 AND DID NOT DO ANYTHING BUT ANSWER THE PHONE .We are very lucky this company never showed up ,they would have stuck us with over charged invoice.Service companioes like this one are known for .Mobile service sompanies take advantage of trucking companies specially on after hours calls ,its called price gouging .
any questions please feel free to call me at 909-772-2539 Raul

You are lucky you got anything at all. You had nothing in writing. You are a service provider just like the trucking company. Welcome to our world!
