TIA Watchdog

TIA Watchdog is a service provided for members to report information about problems to each other in order to help individuals make informed decisions when selecting companies with whom to work.  This program gives TIA members the ability to quickly alert others of problems and help reduce future negative incidents from occurring that involve TIA members.  Refer to the Terms of Service for details when posting a report.

 

A TIA member who has run into a problem with a carrier, agent or 3PL can file a report describing the incident at www.tiawatchdog.com.  The company in question is notified of the complaint made against them and given an opportunity to respond to the alleged occurrence.  After 72 hours, the entire report is removed or posted to the site for all our members to see and use this information to help make informed decisions when selecting carriers.

 

The individual lodging the complaint may report on motor carriers, or companies and individuals posing as motor carriers that have allegedly engaged in one or more of the following:

  • Unauthorized re-brokering of shipments
  • Back-solicited shipper
  • No show and no call
  • In-transit agreement modification
