Kathy in A/P is not good with responding via email. Read receipts will sit for days.
You need to call and speak to her directly for answers - 888-633-1252 ext#3207.
They have always been slow payers with us....

Very important to keep on their backs. Even then they are slow, slow, slow. Most of the time on first contact I will be told that they never received the bill so I have taken the habit of sending it off by e-mail and regular mail.
Now when she tells me they did not receive my e-mail I'll let them know that it was sent by mail also

We've been working with Journey for about 6 years. Although I can never recall ever receiving a cheque by mail that was unsolicited, but they always cut a cheque when we call, and cover all invoices in question...but invoices will always run 60-90 days if we don't call them. We still work with them regularly, and are not worrisome about payment, but they are slow. Maybe they are more prompt because we are located right nearby and pickup our cheques, but we feel comfortable working with them...just don't wait by the mailbox expecting payment to come without calling them first.

Well, just thought that it would be appropriate to put something rather positive here. Lately Journey has seemed to want to improve. Before the holidays they had improved a bit but...last invoice was sent Dec 2 2014 and we just received payment 27 Jan. 2015.
No trend yet but I thought it was worth mentioning

Thanks!
Why they might pay their bill in a reasonable amount of time.
They are one of those brokers that leave out details on their confirmations (like appointments etc.). Their dispatchers are just sloppy to work with.
Also... they continually hound you for rates, rates, rates.
Guaranteed... the best carrier doesn't get the job... the cheapest does.
Not on our "do not use" list... but they are on our "are you sure you can't find anything better" list.

Hard to give details on " co brokered freight"

We had issues with Journey awhile back. Constantly emailing and following up with zero communication back. A few loads the past couple months - around 55 days to pay.
