Data interpretation by DAT. I've come to realization that "general market rate" that everyone is referring to is created on DAT mainframe using a blunt way of data interpretation when it comes to TL and LTL shipments. I have requested a deeper look into an issue and asked to be kept in the loop of this investigation. In other words, data collected from TMS does NOT reflect the difference between TL shipment requests and LTL partial loads. This failure in data interpretation affects so called "market per mile rate" in certain regions to the point of making it difficult and not cost efficient to move the freight. This affects road safety and general well being of truck drivers. I'd really like that addressed and fixed on your end. Thank you.

Not that good anymore… Most of the loads posted on DAT are posted multiple times (as much as 30 times for the same load), this makes it very time consuming and annoying to say the least. DAT claims to be helping to prevent fraud but fraud continues to run rampant with many load posters stating ‘email only’ and posting gmail addresses that have nothing to do with the original brokers email address. With all the brokers offering free load boards now, it’s time consuming to go through them all but at least they’re not riddled with fraudulent load postings, which is probably better than overpaying for a name brand load board that claims to have 100’s of 1000’s of loads per day (deduct all the multiple postings and it’s really not that many).

DAT, Dear DAT, Our account was suspended without given any chance to complete the requirements and what exactly is required. I was told to have a US address on file for company SOS & SAFER, Virtual Address was not accepted and we got the things updated and still hold was not removed without giving any reason. We are a seed funded company and were about to raise $10 million of Series A funding but due to this unexpected HIT of DAT, Dreams seems to be getting vanish now. On that Day, No one from compliance team was willing to help us . I am genuinely asking please support us to get things sorted and please don't kill a founder's dream. Last Time I spoke to compliance in May Month , they said we need to have US based account owner or employee ; as earlier Data of company's Director/President was not public,today it's public now and is visible on SOS website and Company's President is a US based Green Card Holder and present in US. Company's address has been updated now. DAT, do you require anything else? Please guide & resolve.

I like it overall I like it overall. One of the only negatives are the few and repeated bad apple brokers that post the same load from numerous cities and 1 lb just to get around filters. Example would be TQL repeatedly posting a load over one hundred miles from actual shipper. On the app it also is too easy to swipe and accidentally remove a load you were looking and have no way to undo like you can with an email. Basically it would be nice if I could after save load or remove it that it ask to confirm. Thx

Weed out the bad brokers...the one who… Weed out the bad brokers...the one who double broker loads and / or don't pay once you deliver load. And don't have any phone number listed on your load board and don't have a website...and no other way to contact them except thru a personal email
