My name is paul. i work with Velocity Express as a independent contractor for deliveries.
I start with Velocity Express they promise me 55% out of what they get. But they did not want to tell me that they will pay me .55c per mile. They also promise me if i wont do anything they will pay me $110 per day. They even promise me for Gas money. When i sign application and received my first pay check after 3 weeks it was surprised me that it was not even $110 a day. They promise me to do Walgreen deliveries but after 2 weeks they start sending me everywhere their other pharmacies.

They were keeping $130 every week from my pay check that was not even explained. They call it deductions. That was big surprise for me. That means over $500 a month.

This also surprised me that they charge me for my uniform but i just got 2 shirts. They charged me for 3 shirts, 3 pents and jacket. Then they said they dont have any more uniforms yet.

When i called the office to talk to manager they said she is so busy and cant talk to me. Then i decide to not work tell i get explained for my first two pay checks. She finally called me when she knew that i wont work and letting me know that i wont get my 2 pay checks because i am quitting before a year.

So everyone if you dont have job its ok but dont waste your time for these kind of cheap companies.
Dont even sign their contract if they wont explain you every each single point. I hope it will be helpful for everyone.

TransForce Is Here To Save The Day!

AUTHOR: GretaS - (United States of America)

POSTED: Tuesday, February 12, 2013

Velocity Express has been run by crooked accountants since 2000.  Anyone working for them are known as Corporate Slaves.  TransForce treats it's employees with fair wages and benefits.  ICs for them have valid contracts that do not have tricky loopholes.  Their Accounting is not sloppy.  Management has ethics and treats their workforce with respect.  Fortunately,  TransForce bought Velocity Express last month before it went bankrupt again. 

The prior ownerships of Velocity Express were just games of chess was just unethical shifting of liability.  TransForce has total ownership and control.  The steady stream of crooked accountants have now been eradicated. Ethical Accountants of TransForce will be fixing the problems of Fraud, Embezzlement, Sexual Harassment, and Extreme IC dissatisfaction during the next 18 months.  There is hope for Justice!

Hi,

I am a current IC with them. I just want to know that they pay you $110 per day as they promised?
How's about the pick ups? Did they pay you for pick ups?

Thanks,
Mike

When you sign a application with Velocity you have to know that you cant quit before a year. If you quit before a year you wont get your last 2 paychecks.
