User BEWARE! This company has shady billing practices and will bill you for additional fees afterwards that are not true the one they use all the time is limited access, which should be illegal to charge because we have 10 loading docs with trucks coming in and out daily and they have tried to charge this multiple time and when you try to dispute this with overages you get the runaround for months (yes months) which they are hoping you will give up but some of these charges are $100 -$300 which will add up and that I feel is their shady tactics, if you also get this please email it to your attorney general so hopfully enough of us can get this and stop them from this bad practice

UPDATE 1/9/24: I'm amending my review to 4 stars (up from 3) because my account manager reached out to (1) help me fix some settings in my account portal which should fix the issues of notifications no longer going out to customers, and (2) offer me 90 days to grow to meet their shipping minimums. While I can't give 5 stars because of some of the surprise bills and tracking/tech issues, overall, I'm happy with the service and would like to remain on it. OG REVIEW: It was good, but we've had issues with them changing the rates after the shipment a couple of times. There's no recourse - they just charge your bill. Now, it's not syncing with Shopify anymore so there's no shipping confirmation emails going out, despite it appearing to be set up properly and nothing changing. The customer service person is helpful, and I really like her, but I'm going to be getting kicked off their platform in mid-January since we are just building our business and don't ship enough per month on LTL. So, now it's time to find another carrier I can work with directly.

1/5/2024 - Update: Following my 12/15/23, Manager, Chris Mammen reached out to get a better understanding of what was occurring with my account, Chris really listened to understand and help and not simply site, "business policies" and toss me away, he identified the root cause, kept open and frequent communication and stated he's working internally for future improvements, with the type of customer service being provided to us, Clients, and the processes that lead us here to begin with. My original rating was a 1 star, I have updated this to 3 stars, solely on Chris's efforts. Chris, as an individual, gets 5 stars, he's a good human being. 12/15/23 - Update: This company assigned Jason Wu to assist me, I spoke with him twice, his approach was simply to advice of Freight Clubs policies, why my disputes were not their fault, request that I take down my negative reviews because in his words “it’s not fair” offer a $200 “good faith” shipping credit. When I did not JUMP at the “good faith” offer, he threatened to remove it. Freight Club is this the Senior Management style you’ve trained your associates to have? The integration with Shopify was easy enough, thereafter, I do not recommend. The customer service are not advocates for the seller, they side with the carrier on any/all issues. They are slow following up with carriers that have delays in shipment pickup and delivery. As a seller, you'll end up doing all of the leg work including follow-up to resolve issues and for the amount being charged by the shipments, their service needs a complete overhaul. Use a different LTL service. When disputing overage charges, they debit unauthorized charges while your cases are in dispute. This company is trash.

Installed the app and can't get a response from support for almost a week. Would only recommend this app if you like wasting your time.

Zero customer support. A carrier charged me almost $1,000 in overages. Freight Club can’t seem to explain exactly why I was charged this and doesn’t seem to have any well procedures for handling overages/refunds. To make matters worse, Freight Club takes days to respond to each email, then a different person responds to each message (and clearly doesn’t read the full message history), and will not provide support by phone.
