Freight Club

Customer service is horrible. they are untrustworthy and don't stand behind their customers. i will not be using this service any longer. a shipment company damaged and incompletely delivered my items to a customer more than once. i reported this same company a few times and freight club did nothing about it. took over 7 months to lead me on and deny my claim when the shippers admitted responsibility for the damage. I cannot recommend this company until they fix their customer service.

FreightClub has been amazing for my business. They make the shipping large LTL items process incredibly simple for me and my customers! The platform is simple to use and the process is seamless for our business. Even when we had multiple issues happening at the same time, Freightclub's customer service was amazing in helping us solve our issues quickly and efficiently! I highly recommend for any high-ticket eCommerce stores.

Chris has been absolutely ON IT with our account. We had a gigantic list of issues with Freightclub, and Chris knocked out pretty much all of them, even though technically it wasn't even his job! Every time I reach out, he responds quickly and escalates if necessary to upper management. I have a much better relationship with Freightclub than I did in the past, despite the previous issues I detailed below.

1. Multiple website breaking glitches which go on for weeks at a time undiagnosed. When brought up, tech team tells you it's your problem, not theirs. Or that they cannot identify the issue. Or it requires an enormous amount of legwork and follow-up on your part to get them to fix anything.

2. Are slow to follow up with carriers, and have to be reminded often about follow-ups with carriers.

3. Previously had issues with:

- Products not importing
- Products importing incorrectly
- Updates to products erasing existing data upon import
- Dimensions continuously being erased, and having to re-input multiple times
- Additional packages being continuously erased, and having to re-input multiple times
- Rates not pulling correctly
- Providers showing up that should not be showing up as valid shippers for your product
- Landing page/home page broken
- Not able to book shipments at all
- Not able to book with certain carriers (not specified)
- After booking, shipment is not actually booked, and never gets booked, even though your card shows pending charges

Chris has been thru all of these and helped correct the majority of them for our account.

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.

UPDATE: Revised review as Chris took the time to call me and help me navigate the app. DOES NOT WORK. Every time I hit on "get rate" it doesn't take me to the second step. Total waste of time

Freight Club has the best product out there for shipping LTL and has thoroughly built out a scalable product that integrates with Shopify. Mad that I didn't find them sooner but happy that we've finally arrived at a great solution to tackle our challenges and provide our customers with a value add-on. Also, the customer support and dedicated account managers are amazing!

Freight Club is an excellent 3PL service, easy to use, and fair pricing. Would recommend for any e store

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.

We've work with Joe and his team for about 8 months now and they've been terrific. Their site is easy to use and very user friendly. There have been minor issues, but Joe and his team are always there to solve it. Great communication and easy to work with. Thanks FreightClub team!

I haven't leaned into the actual App integration yet but I am extremely pleased with Freight Club's prices, customer service, and the UX of their site...I'm excited that they even HAVE an app to integrate. I feel like even if for whatever reason the app had some flaws it would STILL be so much more beneficial than having no integration at all. I'm excited to see how it works out. And either way I recommend Freight Club!
